Guaranteed Energy Savings Agreement (GESA)
A 15-year program to reduce energy costs by 20-25%
• Improvements to HVAC systems, weatherizing, solar film on windows, boiler plant modifications, campus wide energy management & control
• Upgrading Gas & Electrical systems: higher voltage distribution-expansion reducing our electricity costs
GESA - Saving Money
