New York Methodist Hospital | LCA - Utility Cash Incentives

New York Methodist Hospital

Published on: July 13, 2018

This Client was one of our first projects where we maxed out an incentive for a steam retention program at $500,000. NYSERDA at the time (circa 2007) was so impressed that the reigning President of NYSERDA awarded LC Associates with the “Most Outstanding ESCo” award.

This project entailed the installation of two 400 ton steam absorber chillers in order to avoid the installation of two electric 400 ton machines. The project allowed around 400 kW of electric demand to be removed from the electric grid permanently.
