Ave Maria University completes $5.3M energy infrastructure projects

Work has been completed on a pair of projects at Ave Maria University that modernize the school’s infrastructure and upgrades its automation system.

Ameresco Inc., a Massachusetts-based energy solutions company that did the work, says in a statement that the $5.3 million projects were designed to "enhance operational control, safety and support future campus expansion" at the Collier County university.

The scope of the work includes automating HVAC equipment across five campus buildings and upgrading exterior lighting to improve visibility and safety.
