City of Orem Teams with Siemens on Comprehensive Efficiency Program
Project scope includes HVAC enhancements, building automation modifications, and more
OREM, Utah — Siemens has begun working on infrastructure improvements for Orem, Utah, that are expected to save the city an estimated $11.4 million in energy and operational cost savings and capital cost avoidance over 15 years. The initial project phase of this performance contract will allow Orem to use new technologies to make necessary capital improvements to meet the needs of its growing population and continued economic development.
“This project means a lot to our city,” said Jamie Davidson, Orem city manager. “We’re looking forward to bringing our community upgraded facilities, and we’re making these improvements with savings we’ll be generating. We’re confident that these upgrades will help us prepare for anticipated growth in our city for years to come. In every government’s quest to ‘do more with less,’ using energy savings to make necessary improvements is a no-brainer.”
