Project Summary

Package E – Bryant Denny Stadium Thermal Connection will connect BDS to the existing
thermal energy system allowing BDS to remove the chillers throughout the stadium. This
package will yield significant operational and energy savings for the University due to load
diversity within the system and not having to run numerous independent air-cooled chillers at
the stadium at all times and load conditions.

Package F – Tutwiler Thermal Piping Distribution will extend the thermal piping from the newly
installed connector point at the intersection of Judy Bonner Drive and Colonial Drive to the
South Campus Energy Plant located in the Tutwiler Parking Deck to provide thermal energy for
the new Tutwiler Hall and to provide interconnection to the future South Campus Energy Plant
to the Central System as described in Package C.

Package G – East Quad Energy Plant Fit-Out and Parham/Burke Thermal Connections will
furnish and install the remaining chillers and cooling towers at the East Quad Energy Plant. In
addition, the thermal piping will be extended to Martha Parham Hall and Mary Burke Hall. The
thermal energy piping will connect at the existing valves located at the intersection of Magnolia
Drive and 6th Street to provide hot and chilled water to the buildings which will allow for the
decommissioning of the existing equipment. This will also allow both buildings to be converted
to a 4-pipe system for greater temperature control, enhancing occupant comfort, and energy
savings.
