February 14, 2008: IDEA (International District Energy Association) Campus Energy Conference Boston, MA

Information sharing for Central Utilities Plants for large campus settings (Universities, Hospitals, Municipal buildings, etc.) was the purpose of this conference.  Energy usage, and innovative approaches to minimizing carbon footprint were major topic areas.

Ray Racine (Senior Controls Engineer) in conjunction with the Central Heating Plant staff of the University of Vermont presented a paper on recent upgrades to five existing boilers in the CHP.  The controls upgrade moved the boilers from panel mounted pneumatic controllers up to a modern electronic platform.  The selected platform was the Emerson DeltaV offering.  Other modifications to the plant included the installation of VFDs on the Forced Draft Fans, and the installation of two steam-driven chillers to provide central cooling.  The paper outlined the mechanical, electrical & controls work associated with the project and covered the major lessons learned in this ambitious upgrade.
