The contract requires Schneider Electric to perform building upgrades at the 75,000sqft Marceline High School, replacing an aging steam boiler with a new HVAC system to improve the energy performance of the building.

The new HVAC system will include the addition of rooftop units to add air-conditioning capabilities in classrooms, new insulated glass windows to replace spaces left from old window air conditioning units, and a new energy management system to monitor energy usage.

In addition, Schneider Electric will replace the front doors and install new double-pane windows to improve heating efficiency in the entry area of the Walt Disney Elementary School, thereby reducing energy usage while creating a comfortable learning environment for students and teachers.

Schneider Electric expects this project to enable Marceline R-V School District to realize considerable energy savings and reduce its annual carbon emission by 27,807 pounds.

Marceline R-V School District superintendent Gabe Edgar said that Schneider Electric designed an energy management system that exceeded their requirements and stayed within their budget.
