Commonwealth of Massachusetts: North Central Correctional Institute at Gardner

Background

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create clean energy jobs, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts introduced the Accelerated Energy Program (AEP), which is implementing energy efficiency projects across more than 60 million square feet of state buildings. The 28-building campus at the North Central Correctional Institute at Gardner (NCCI) just completed upgrades to the existing high pressure steam heating system, which relies on #6 fuel oil for heat and hot water, in addition to other building envelope and thermal improvements.

Originally built in the late 1800’s as a sanitarium and working farm, the NCCI at Gardner, as it is now known, is located on twenty acres of hillside near the Gardner/Westminster town line and was opened in 1981. The complex has undergone numerous renovations and upgrades throughout its 100+- year history.
