On July 22, 2025, Ameresco, Inc. announced the launch of its $30 million Phase 2 project with the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC). Building on a decade-long collaboration, this project focuses on advanced energy-efficient HVAC infrastructure upgrades across two critical campus buildings.
The project includes the installation of 24 energy-efficient air handling units and sophisticated heating and cooling smart controls in University Hall and the Behavioral Science Building. This initiative is expected to generate over $1 million in combined annual energy and operational savings for UIC.
The project, expected to be completed in 18 months, is projected to deliver significant environmental benefits, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to driving approximately 5.5 million miles in an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle annually. It aligns with UIC's Climate Commitment Action Plan to prioritize energy efficiency.
