The Dayton Power and Light Company (DP&L), a subsidiary of The AES Corporation (NYSE:AES), is recognizing Kettering Health Network today for earning $1 million in rebates through energy-saving measures that are improving the environment. The efforts are part of a broader corporate energy efficiency initiative that includes the Kettering Medical Center, Grandview Medical Center, Greene Memorial Hospital, Soin Medical Center, Southview Medical Center and Sycamore Medical Center.

The $1 million rebate milestone is a collective effort across all Kettering Health Network facilities.

Specific Programs and Energy Savings include:

  • Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning – 5,508,872 kWh per year, $600,000 rebates
  • Lighting – 3,114,558 kWh per year, $300,000 rebates
  • New construction, compressors, motors and other programs to achieve the higher energy efficiencies – 1,117,227 kWh per year, $100,000 rebates

As a result of these energy efficiency projects, Kettering Health Network is expected to save approximately 10 million kWh annually which accumulates to a yearly cost savings of $591,486.

“DP&L is proud to partner with Kettering Health Network in helping them meet their energy efficiency goals and recognizes the achievement of $1 million in total energy rebates,” said DP&L President and CEO Tom Raga. “Kettering Health Network is taking the necessary steps across their facilities making energy efficiency and the environment a priority and today, we celebrate the realization of those efforts.”

“We appreciate this generous rebate from DP&L,” said Roy Chew, president of Kettering Health Network. “By being energy efficient, not only are we improving the environment, we are carefully managing the resources entrusted to our care as a faith-based, not-for-profit organization.”
