“Checking Out” Energy Efficiency at the Center Street Library
CASE STUDY CLIENT City of Milwaukee MARKET Public Sector OFFERINGS Retro-Commissioning SCOPE As part of an effort to identify opportunities for energy conservation and cost savings, the City of Milwaukee’s Center Street Library contracted Edison Energy to perform a retro-commissioning study on the 16,150 sq. ft. facility. The Center Street Library was interested in improving the overall function of the building, and was committed to making the necessary changes that would ultimately provide cost savings and reduced energy usage. Upon completion, Edison Energy determined that the Library’s actuator was disconnected from the open damper shaft. By reconnecting and closing the outdoor air damper, it was able to stop the excess outside air from entering. The study also investigated
