Doylestown Hospital cuts emissions 50% and adds $400,000 in annual cash flow with Southland Industries

Doylestown Hospital, a healthcare provider in Pennsylvania, was facing challenges with its outdated central chilled water plant and needed firm economic justification for an upgrade. The hospital administrators turned to Southland Industries for help due to their expertise with healthcare mechanical systems.

Southland Industries implemented a cost-effective design-build solution, securing nearly $1 million in grants to fund a new 1.6 MW combined heat and power plant. The results were exceptional, with the owner realizing a net positive cash flow of over $400,000 annually. Southland's solution also reduced carbon emissions by 50 percent and significantly improved the building's Energy Star score, all while providing ongoing HVAC maintenance staffing for the campus.
