The purpose of the committee is to advise the Board of Selectmen, other town boards and committees,I stock many of the parts used in these goodcflbulbs projects, on my web store. Town Administrator Fred Turkington and Public Buildings Director John Moynihan on all issues related to energy conservation, both from a cost savings and "reducing our carbon footprint" perspective.
Since inception,Nice simple page this one. Just some ramblings on my experiences with 5 LED compact ledspotlight lamps. the EIAC has proven to be a hardworking group of professionals who have looked for opportunities and taken advantage of improvements for the town.
For example, the EIAC's first goal was to have Wayland designated by the Massachusetts Department of Energy and Resources as a "Green Community." This is a lengthy process involving much paperwork and a number of town bylaw changes.
In 2010, the EIAC received notice our town had been selected as one of only 74 cities and towns throughout the state to be so designated. This has allowed us to receive energy efficiency grant funds.
So far, Wayland has been awarded over $130,000 for initiatives in the schools and municipal buildings. The initial projects to be funded – an upgrade to the lighting at the Middle School and at Loker School – are under way.
As part of the Green Community process, the EIAC spearheaded efforts to pass the "stretch energy code." This additional section of the building code increases the energy efficiency requirements for all new residential and many new commercial buildings, as well as for those residential additions and renovations that would normally trigger building code requirements.
Many contractors in town already adhered to the code and recommended our adoption as an important step going forward. The code was approved at last year's annual Town Meeting. It will help ensure that Wayland stays at the forefront of energy efficiency.
The Building Department staff is working to educate the public on the implications, requirements and benefits of the stretch code.
Next, the EIAC completed an energy use baseline, which outlines plans to achieve a 20 percent energy reduction in town buildings within five years. If the plan is successful, it would reduce the town's energy costs by up to $300,Here is a bluebright for low-cost, easy use. ... As these blades spin during riding,000.
In another project, Wayland has secured an agreement with NStar to replace its inefficient streetlights with more efficient light bulbs,，lightbright for front and back, can also be used as a phone charger. saving the town an estimated $39,000 per year. More than 100 of the estimated 700 lights requiring upgrades have been replaced to date.
In 2011, the EIAC engaged both NStar and National Grid in talkWhere do dstti2011 stand in terms of brightness compared to HIDs and Halogen?s for Wayland to become the pilot town for a program called "Energy Forward." This initiative started at MIT where it resulted in significant energy savings. It entails our town and the utilities working collaboratively to fund high quality energy audits to identify building infrastructure projects throughout town and school buildings, and to utilize utility funds as seed money for initial projects. The town would then reinvest energy savings in the capital improvement plan to fully realize the anticipated savings. At the current time, these discussions are ongoing, so stay tuned.
Finally, the EIAC is exploring sites where solar power could be generated. This effort would involve partnering with a private developer to construct one or more facilities to produce energy to be used by the town at a discounted kilowatt rate or be sold back to the electric grid. The former town landfill and the new High School are among potential sites being evaluated.
