THE FOREST COUNTY POTAWATOMI COMMUNITY (FCPC) PROJECT PROPOSES APPROXIMATELY NINE (9) ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES (EEMS) FOCUSED ON THE HEATING, VENTILATION, AND COOLING SYSTEM (HVAC) AT THE MILWAUKEE POTAWATOMI HOTEL AND CASINO (PHC), WHICH, AT ROUGHLY 1.3 MILLION SQUARE FEET (SQ-FT), ACCOUNTS FOR OVER HALF OF THE TRIBE’S ENERGY USE. THE PROJECT AIMS TO PROMOTE ENERGY SOVEREIGNTY IN THE NEAR-TERM, WHILE ALSO MOVING FCPC CLOSER TO REACHING A LONG-TERM GOAL OF USING 100% CARBON NEUTRAL RENEWABLE ENERGY. THE PHC USES 37,050 MEGAWATT-HOURS (MWH) AND 1,667,416 THERMS ANNUALLY, AND THE FIRST-YEAR ENERGY REDUCTION AS A RESULT OF THIS PROJECT IS ESTIMATED TO BE MORE THAN 959 MWH AND 263,000 THERMS. LIFETIME ENERGY SAVINGS ARE PROJECTED TO BE 13,488 MWH AND 4,288,000 THERMS VALUED AT MORE THAN $4.5 MILLION.
