The presentation discusses Massachusetts' Accelerated Energy Program which manages energy efficiency and renewable energy projects across the state's large portfolio of over 80 million square feet of facilities, in order to reduce energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions in support of the state's energy and sustainability goals. The program has completed energy efficiency upgrades and retrofits at hundreds of sites across the state, achieving over $8 million in annual energy savings so far with a projected $42 million in annual savings, and plans to continue advancing performance through innovative technologies and partnerships.

- 12. The Problem – DDS Hogan - Danvers • Plant built late 1800’s- site of former Danvers State Hospital • Nearly 1 mile from plant to facility • Studies to replace started in 1980’s • No dedicated funds • Many parties needed to agree
- 13. Slide 13 Solution • Finished construction in 2012 • Cost of new natural gas system for one month = facility used to pay for 2 days of oil • Other upgrades include lighting, new windows, energy controls • Leveraged other funds • Over a million in utility incentives, 43% reduction in energy use, $2.4M savings annually • Huge comfort improvements
