DTMB upgrades two historic buildings and receives Energy Star Certification
The Michigan Department of Technology Management & Budget (DTMB) has shown that old buildings can be energy efficient, adding Cadillac Place and the George W. Romney Building its list of Energy Star certified facilities.
An Energy Star certification is the gold standard for assessing a building’s energy efficiency. It can be difficult to meet the rigorous standards, especially with historic buildings, which may be using outdated electrical systems, as well as heating, venting, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
The changes made at the two state-owned properties are part of an overall effort to reduce energy consumption in DTMB-managed facilities across the state. So far, these facility improvements have resulted in an estimated decrease of $4.3 million dollars per year in utility expenses.
