Honeywell To Help Luke Air Force Base Save Millions
GLENDALE, Ariz. - Honeywell recently announced a $9.6 million energy savings performance contract (ESPC) with Luke Air Force Base, located here. The contract includes infrastructure improvements, renewable energy saving measures, and long-term preventive maintenance services, all funded with guaranteed savings. The base is expected to save $21.8 million in energy and operational costs over the next 20-plus years because of the aggressive energy-retrofit program.
"The project's innovative approach allowed us to make necessary improvements to our base exchange and address mandated energy savings," said John Li, Luke energy manager, referring to Executive Order 13123, which requires federal agencies to reduce energy use 35 percent from 1985 levels by 2010. "With the guaranteed savings generated by this project, we'll be able to upgrade facilities and increase energy efficiency at no additional cost to taxpayers."
