Energy system helps school win Battle of the Buildings
Claiborne Elementary School in Baton Rouge, LA, was the winner of the Energy Star National Building Competition: Battle of the Buildings. It’s easy to see why the school came out a winner.
Louisiana Controls Inc., a Baton Rouge-based member of the InsideIQ Building Automation Alliance, completed upgrades to the school’s facility controls and energy management system (EMS) that helped the school to cut its energy use nearly in half, enabling it to win the competition. Teams from more than 3,000 buildings across the country spent the past year competing to obtain the greatest reduction in energy use and win the Battle of the Buildings.
