Honeywell helps LA Air Force base drive efficiency savings
Honeywell has announced an $11 million modernization project at the U.S. Air Force base in Los Angeles. The project includes efficiency upgrades and renewable energy measures that will help cut energy use by approximately 17% and generate an estimated average of $800,000 in annual energy savings over the 23-year contact.
The project is part of an energy savings performance contract (ESPC) awarded by the U.S. Air Force Civil Engineer Center in a first-of-its-kind partnership with the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center in Huntsville, AL. Under the contract, Honeywell guarantees the improvements will generate enough energy savings to pay for the work, so the Air Force will not need an initial capital investment. Over the contract term, the project is self-funding.
