Arena Getting a Green Makeover

The city is spending 137 thousand dollars to upgrade the energy efficiency of the Peter Murray Arena. SES Lighting and Energy Consultants of Bedford, NS has been awarded the contract to replace all inside lighting with new low wattage lamps and install sensors in areas where the lights are left on 24 hours. Energy cost savings are estimated to be about 45 hundred dollars annually with reductions in green house gas emissions by 45 tons each year.
Meanwhile, Master Mechanical Contractors will replace the Ammonia Plant Heat Recovery and Flood Water Heating system. This will save money and increase the life expectancy of the hot water system by 15 years.
