Culver Stockton College Cuts Electricity Use with Energy Management Platform

Culver-Stockton College has deployed an energy management platform in an effort to reduce costs.

The private school, with nearly 1,000 students, contracted with Energy Solutions Professionals in November "to design and install $3.9 million of energy-solution improvements in various buildings on their campus that will allow the College to save $368,000 annually in utility costs," according to a news release.

Among the improvements was Telkonet's EcoSmart Energy Management Platform, which is designed to reduce energy usage while maintaining comfort. "Telkonet can provide and install any combination of intelligent thermostats, occupancy sensors, door contacts and plug load control devices," according to information on the company's site. "All products can be networked to enhance energy efficiency and provide remote monitoring capability."
