KANSAS CITY, MO--(Marketwire - Apr 18, 2011) - 1102 GRAND, Kansas City's Carrier Hotel, recently implemented Kansas City Power & Light's (KCP&L's) Custom Rebate Retrofit Program and projects a Wattage reduction of 53 percent just in time for Earth Day 2011 (http://1102grand.com/blog/).
Darren Bonawitz, principal of 1102 GRAND, said that this project was a retrofit of existing lighting in strategic areas of the 1102 GRAND building. "The Custom Rebate Retrofit Construction Program provides customers with financial incentives for installing qualifying electricity savings measures including HVAC systems, motors, variable speed drives, lighting, building controls, pumps, etc.," said Bonawitz. "This project will take a short time to pay off, has a high ROI and the rebate covered almost half of the cost. It is definitely a process that we will do again because it is eco-friendly, benefits our organization and the community."
