Fort Benning Works With Honeywell To Improve Energy Resilience

Honeywell International Inc HON and Fort Benning, a U.S. Army post located on the border of Alabama and Georgia, announce the next phase of a modernization project.
The next phase will improve energy resilience and create a more comfortable living and working environment for Fort Benning soldiers, employees, and tenants. The $23 million project will help significantly reduce energy consumption on the base and generate $1.4 million in annual energy savings.

The project includes a utility monitoring and control system (UMCS), communication and cybersecurity upgrades, LED lighting, lighting controls, occupancy sensors, building envelope improvements such as sealing cracks, gaps, holes, and window solar film.
Honeywell will repair an existing roof-mounted solar system to aid in producing renewable energy.
The project represents the next phase of a 25-year energy savings performance contract (ESPC) awarded to Honeywell in 2019 by Fort Benning, with a total project value of $43 million.
