Siemens Building Technologies, Inc. installed a power project at Hudson Valley Community College (HVCC) in upstate New York that makes the college energy independent, partially by converting methane gas from a local landfill into electricity. Siemens installed four cogeneration units, totaling 4.2 megawatts that are producing electricity and capturing waste heat to supplement campus heating and cooling. The project is expected to save HVCC, Troy, NY, more than $1.3 million in energy costs while paying for the construction, operation, and maintenance of the plant over a 15-year period.
