Medical Center Sees Healthy Energy Savings With Fan Coil Retrofit
Boston Medical Center (BMC), a comprehensive medical facility providing inpatient, outpatient, and emergency care in the heart of the city’s historic South End, needed to address challenges associated with a merger which resulted in a split campus configuration. In addition to necessary updates to its facilities and overall HVAC equipment, a primary focus involved a multi-phase mechanical system retrofit initiative throughout the BMC campus.
Recently kicking off a four-year, clinical campus-wide redesign project, the project as a whole was slated to yield at least $25 million in annual cost savings upon completion, including several construction plans aimed to streamline operational efficiencies as well as notably reduce energy consumption.
