‌White River Junction VA Medical Center | White River Junction, VT

‌After receiving the Award from the Department of Veterans Affairs, TL Services successfully completed the Boiler Plant Dual Fuel Conversion Measure utilizing Compressed Natural Gas for the White River Junction VA Medical Center on time.  As of June 30, 2020, our team completed the infrastructure improvements including dirt work, asphalt, concrete, 1,200 linear feet of underground gas piping, electrical, and mechanical work required for this project.  In addition, all corrections were made to the boiler plant ancillary equipment required in order to meet the VA’s Boiler Safety Test Design Manual – fuel oil purification skids, infrared boiler burner scanners, etc.

Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPC) require that the Prime Contractor develop energy conservation measures that are implemented and the resulting energy savings for each retrofit/measure be guaranteed by the Prime Contractor.  In this case, the Prime Contractor is solely TL Services.  The project ROI was less than six (6) years.  Contact Rob Hester at TL Services if you should have any further questions regarding this project.

‌Besides delivering significant cost savings, CNG burns much cleaner than #2 fuel oil and is better for the environment and helps reduce the carbon footprint. By providing an additional source of energy / fuel, this project also helps strengthen the infrastructure and resiliency of the facility.
