The Department of Energy’s (DOE) Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) is working to increase energy savings and lower operating costs for federal real property. The DOE awarded 21 contracts to energy service companies to meet set energy efficiency goals.
Types of improvements vary from boiler plant upgrades, chiller plant improvements, changes in lighting and updates to the buildings’ electronic control system, among others. Alternative energy production will come in the form of solar power or wind farm installations.
