It isn’t just the small business owners and homeowners who are looking to increase the energy efficiency of their buildings and homes — it’s the big utility companies as well. One recent example of how a utility company is serving its commercial building owners by upgrading to more energy efficient mechanical systems is Veolia Energy North America and its district energy network in Los Angeles.
Veolia Energy’s district energy network supplies chilled water for cooling to 20 commercial office buildings in downtown Los Angeles and Century City, representing nearly 12 million square feet of space. The investment in new HVAC equipment has helped make Veolia Energy’s district energy network even more energy-efficient for its customers.
