City of Brockton Modernizes Buildings, Improves Energy Efficiency
The City of Brockton in Massachusetts plans to modernize its buildings, making them more energy-efficient.
The city plans to work with energy solutions provider Ameresco, Inc. on energy efficiency.
The City of Brockton’s goals include the preservation of two historically significant buildings: City Hall, built in 1892, and the War Memorial Building, dedicated on June 20, 1930. These projects are part of a broader initiative to enhance city buildings and lighting projects throughout Brockton.
The City of Brockton's $7 million energy savings performance contract (ESPC) will deliver comprehensive upgrades, including advanced lighting systems, new energy management technologies, and enhanced HVAC and ventilation systems with completion expected in 2025. The City Hall project is well underway and will soon feature a direct outdoor air system (DOAS) to introduce fresh air and provide a healthier and more pleasant experience for government officials and visitors.
The War Memorial Building has undergone significant enhancements and upgrades. The $3 million ESPC improvements include a new HVAC system, advanced lighting systems, a new roof, restoration of historic windows and trims, new energy management technologies, and the installation of energy-efficient storm windows.
"We are incredibly proud of the work being done to preserve and upgrade Brockton's historic buildings,” said Robert F. Sullivan, Mayor of the City of Brockton, Massachusetts, in a statement. “These projects not only honor our past but also ensure a healthier and more sustainable future for our City and our community. The partnership with Ameresco has been instrumental in making these improvements possible, and we are grateful for their expertise, support and dedication."
