Little-known Southwest superstar Carrollsburg Condominium is in the news for its unique and innovative approach to community improvement through strategic, incremental efficiency improvements. Now roughly 5 years after the property first decided to undertake a more forward-thinking long-term infrastructure investment strategy, the community has significantly improved its mechanical system reliability, raised its Energy Star score by over 50 points, and saved over $700,000 in energy expenses.

The community has implemented upgrades ranging from central cooling & heating plant replacement to advanced building automation and—most impressively—its own on-site generation system (through the District’s first microturbine Combined Heat and Power plant to power a multifamily campus).
