1. Chilled Water Plant Overview From Project Concept To Operation July 26, 2007

2. –Similar Philosophy As Central Heat Plant Installation (consolidation and operational effectiveness) –1960’s Board of Trustees decision to invest in a utility grade steam system. –Opportunity to build while a major portion of the north campus was excavated Review Why Does UVM Need A Centralized Chilled Water System

3. –Lower life cycle costs –Operating cost reduction of about 30% –Allows optimum system configuration for the Central Heat Plant System –Reduction of peak electrical power –Substantially lower costs for the future –Less construction time for future buildings –Allows cooling of historical buildings –Lower emissions - better environment-regionally –Consolidated chemical treatment –Consolidated noise generating equipment Major Advantages of Centralized Cooling System

4. –Facilities Design and Construction and Physical Plant –Key University Stakeholders –End users (customers) –Many Consultants, Engineers and Contractors. Project Collaboration

6. –Piping Network –Chiller Room –Control System –Cooling Tower Structure –Utility Vaults Some Of The Major Components We Will See (or stand on top of) This Afternoon
