Issue: The Webb County Central Plant Facility Chiller System was over 15 years old and approaching the end of it's service life.

Solution: Commissioner Court approved the upgrading and replacement, with a more energy efficient system, and the installation of an upgraded Building Automation System (BAS), in order to save the County money by reducing electricity and system maintenance expenditures. Approve and pay retainage.

Result: Project has been completed. We are ready to closeout. The Energy Efficient System and the up-grated Building Automation System have been installed. This so far, has resulted in savings to the County from AEP in a rebate totaling $115,358.47.
