BOSTON - The Massachusetts Division of Capital Management and Maintenance (DCAMM) has selected Constellation, an Exelon company, to implement more than $17 million in energy efficiency improvements at the Massachusetts Information Technology Center (MITC).

MITC, located in Chelsea, Mass., is home to several state departments and houses state-operated data center equipment.

Energy conservation measures to be implemented in the four-story, 425,000 square foot facility include LED lighting, a new chiller plant (including cooling tower replacements), air handling units, and energy management systems.

'DCAMM is committed to promoting responsible energy usage in State-owned and operated buildings through the implementation of these creative and innovative measures,' said Carol Gladstone, DCAMM Commissioner. 'This strategic investment in the MITC building will help bring the Commonwealth closer to its carbon emissions goals.'

Project construction began in December 2020 and is expected be completed by February 2022.

'Over the last 15 years Constellation has implemented a total of 10 efficiency or renewable projects for DCAMM,' said John Wardle, vice president, Energy Efficiency, Constellation. 'We're proud to continue our track record of implementing sustainability-focused solutions for the agency through our upcoming work at MITC.'
