Energy upgrades completed in 2018 at seven Morgan County Schools and a number of district support facilities, in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, have resulted in a $1 million savings in utility and related costs over five years. The guaranteed energy management project with CMTA Energy Solutions included LED lighting replacements and retrofits, new direct digital HVAC control systems, new HVAC rooftop units, fire alarm upgrades, and water efficiency upgrades at some or all of the schools and support facilities. The project, set up as a 15-year budget neutral Guaranteed Energy Saving Contract, uses “guaranteed savings from the operations and maintenance (utilities) budget as capital to make needed environmental upgrades and modernizations, which are financed over time.” (Evans, 2024). Director of Maintenance, Russell Penner, said, “While our project has generated savings for the school district, most impressively, several of our buildings have met Energy Star requirements and are certified. As a result, our district is not only saving funds on utilities, but we are also having a more positive impact on the environment…”
