Energy Management Solutions for School Buildings
Budget Challenges & Rising Energy Costs
School superintendents, administrators and facility managers must pare down all wasteful expenses to keep a focus on educating children. In addition, communities are increasingly looking at schools and public buildings to promote and demonstrate the effectiveness of green strategies. Thus, maintaining a cost-effective energy policy to reduce energy waste across a district has become an important way to curb spiraling energy budgets and reduce carbon emissions.

Reducing HVAC energy waste through better management can reduce building energy consumption by 25% or more without sacrificing indoor environmental quality, making it a practical and effective strategy.

Intelligent Energy Management
Energy management can actively measure and control energy consumption in real-time 24/7. It enables:
  • Visibility to patterns of energy consumption
  • Implementation of consistent energy policies
  • Policy compliance
  • Measuring performance for continuous improvement
Operation of HVAC and lighting represent most of the energy consumption in school buildings. While policies may be developed to manually reduce wasteful consumption, generally schools cannot always comply because of schedule changes, special events, or inattention.

District-Wide Solution
The solution is a district-wide energy conservation program that can be rapidly deployed throughout a district with limited capital costs and class disruption. You quickly gain usage data, trends and better overall control for saving energy. Millennial Net’s wireless Energy Management Solutions are designed to leverage existing infrastructure to rapidly retrofit buildings and achieve significant savings of 10 to 30%; with a payback period typically under 2 years.

THE ANSWER


  Tim Burns,
Cherokee Schools District Superintendent in Kansas:

“Our school district consists of three K-8 schools and a high school. We recognized the need to reduce energy consumption, so we installed the system to establish and automate our energy policy across all buildings. The system primarily consists of a wireless network of intelligent thermostats (Wi-Stat). The wireless network provides two-way communications between the Wi-Stats. This enables remote monitoring and
 
control throughout each building, and the internet is used to link all buildings to Millennial Net’s web-based software application (Wi-EMS). The system was installed by Chevron Energy Solutions and local contractors, with support from Millennial Net.”
