Constellation today announced that it has been awarded phase 2
of a contract from The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to
install $25.8 million in energy efficiency and water conservation
measures. Under the terms of the contract, the upgrades are
expected to save the Port Authority more than $27 million in
operating costs over 20 years. The resulting savings will be used
to fund the cost of the project, which is scheduled for completion
in December of 2016.
“Constellation is proud to continue to support the Port
Authority’s commitment to energy efficiency and environmental
responsibility,” said Gary Fromer, senior vice president,
Distributed Energy, for Constellation.
In 2012, Constellation was selected by competitive request for
proposal to provide $8.7 million in energy conservation measures
for the Port Authority Bus Terminal and the Lincoln Tunnel.
Phase 2 of the project includes the installation of more than
5,000 light-emitting diode (LED) exterior lighting fixtures at the
George Washington Bridge, the Holland and Lincoln tunnel Roadways,
the Goethals Bridge and the Outerbridge Crossing. Constellation
will also install efficiency upgrades at the administration
buildings for the tunnels and bridges including: interior lighting
and building automation controls, boiler and chiller replacements,
low-flow toilets and faucets, and building envelopment improvements
such as caulking, weather stripping, and new windows.
By implementing water and energy conservation measures, the Port
Authority expects to conserve an estimated 1.1 million gallons of
water annually and avoid the creation of 3,000 tons of greenhouse
gases annually over the contract term.
