The $1.2m TSE contract is part of an energy efficiency project coordinated by Energy Services Company (ESCO), encompassing military bases across the east coast.
During this nine month project, more than 3,000 housing units in over 30 different buildings will be installed with Telkonet SmartEnergy equipment, including Telkonet’s SS1107 PTAC controllers and hardwired SS2000 occupancy sensors.
Utilizing Telkonet’s patented Recovery Time technology, TSE eliminates wasteful heating and cooling of vacant rooms. In rooms with PTACs, the SS1107 Energy Management Controller maintains the occupant’s preferred temperature setting while the room is occupied.
When vacant, the SS1107 works with the PTAC unit to adjust the temperature to a new energy efficient setting. The new efficient temperature is maintained until the occupant re-enters the room, at which time the SS1107 allows the PTAC to return to the occupant’s original temperature setting within a predetermined Recovery Time.
Jeffrey Sobieski, chief operating officer of Telkonet, said: “This is a strategic win in our efforts to demonstrate smart energy efficiency savings in military housing. With over 3,000 units, this will be our largest military installation to date.”
