The Finishing Touch
First C-PACE project to close in the MD-PACE Program
The Chestertown retail shop worked with MD-PACE to deploy $134,408 of C-PACE financing toward HVAC upgrades, and the replacement of more than 1,000 square feet of low R-value glass. The retrofits improved the building’s overall energy efficiency, year-round. The building is expected to save approximately $7,000 in the first year, and $300,704 in lifetime savings.
