Public Schools of the Tarrytowns Launches Major Energy Efficiency Initiative with Energia and Ameresco
The project will implement a comprehensive range of energy-saving measures tailored to each building, including lighting system improvements, upgrading and recommissioning energy management systems, expanding EMS with pneumatic replacements, reducing infiltration, adding pipe or tank insulation, replacing roofs, and installing roof-mounted solar panels.
The improvements will benefit the following district buildings: Sleepy Hollow High/Middle School, John Paulding School, Tappan Hill School, Irving Middle School, and the Administration Building.
Brian S. Fried, Assistant Superintendent for Business, emphasized the importance of the initiative, stating:
"This Energy Performance Contract will have the effect of completing an additional and approximate $6M worth of needed capital project work. The work comes at no additional cost to the taxpayers. It will be funded by the reduction in cost of utilities based on the energy savings. We also will be eligible for State Aid and grant funding on the project. It's the responsible and environmentally conscious thing to do for our students, our taxpayers, and our overall community."
This project represents a major step forward in the district's commitment to sustainability, fiscal responsibility, and providing a safe, comfortable, and energy-efficient learning environment for students and staff. The partnership with Energia and Ameresco ensures that the district’s goals of efficiency and environmental stewardship will be met through cutting-edge technology and a collaborative approach.
