A reassessment of select City owned facilities will allow Administration to determine the effectiveness of the existing energy and water retrofits, as well as provide opportunities to achieve greater cost and energy savings. The audit will provide recommendations for energy efficiency and energy generation projects that can be implemented, where possible joint upgrades would be implemented to reduce mobilization costs from a contractor perspective.
