Solar Powered Savings

The Cummings Center solar crew persevered through blustery snow squalls, and cold, wet conditions to install a new 1,738-panel, 530-KW solar array (more than an acre) atop Cummings Center's "Northwest Garage." The system is expected to produce 575,702 kWh annually, enough to power approximately 48 million iPods for a year and cut down on energy costs to power common area lighting! 

A Constellation of Energy Stars!

It could be called The Big Saver—a constellation of the three newest Energy Star certified Cummings Properties buildings! Each property outranks 75 percent of similar facilities nationwide for energy efficiency. The three award winners are 8 Cabot Road in Woburn (left), 142/144 North Road in Sudbury (center), and 800 Cummings Center in Beverly (right). Cummings now has 10 Energy Star-rated properties! Begin conserving energy and business dollars by calling Cummings at 781-935-8000!

Green Lights!

It's a bright idea to conserve energy! A pioneer in the energy-conservation movement in commercial real estate, Cummings Properties recently completed a year-long lighting retrofit project, upgrading nearly 15,000 lighting fixtures throughout 40 buildings! The new energy-efficient fixtures will conserve nearly  5.5 million kilowatt hours annually, enough electricity to power 550 homes!

Sunlight Savings Time

"Here comes the sun" means "here comes the energy savings" at Cummings Center in Beverly. Clients are beaming about a new 800-panel solar array above the East Garage, which helps power common area systems.  The solar array is expected to produce enough energy annually to power nearly 40 typical suburban homes! This is Cummings' fifth major photovoltaic solar panel installation.
