Edison awards county energy-efficiency efforts
Southern California Edison presented the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday with a check for $127,978 for the installation of energy-efficient equipment on several county projects.
The county's Architectural and Engineering and Facilities Management departments worked jointly with Edison through an energy partnership that expanded the county's efforts to enhance energy efficiency within new building construction and retrofit of existing buildings, according to a county news release.
"This partnership and the forward-thinking of our departments opened the door to enhanced incentives that represent immediate and long-term savings on county construction projects," board chairman Gary Ovitt said in the news release.
The incentive payment represented energy savings from the installation and retrofit of high-efficiency air conditioning equipment and controls.
"It gives us much satisfaction to know this partnership not only reduces costs on our finished projects and continues energy savings long-term, but also that these enhancements will properly support the operation of these buildings for decades to come," County Administrative Officer Mark Uffer said in the news release.
