Case Study: Crosstown Development Team achieves lower costs and sustainability gains with Trane Commercial HVAC

Crosstown Development Team reduces energy costs 3% year-over-year with Trane Commercial

The Crosstown Development Team faced the challenge of revitalizing a 90-year-old abandoned building in Memphis into a sustainable "vertical urban village" while lowering operational costs and maximizing the asset's potential. They partnered with Trane Commercial, seeking its expertise in HVAC systems and building controls to achieve these strategic goals.

Trane implemented high-efficiency chillers, the Tracer Ensemble building management system, and energy meters to optimize operations and track tenant energy use. This solution from Trane helped reduce upfront capital costs by over $250,000, increased building occupancy to 98%, and achieved year-over-year energy cost reductions. The project earned LEED Platinum certification and is on track to save $760,000 in annual utility costs while significantly reducing carbon emissions.
