Republic School District
In 2023, Republic School District in Washington was faced with an urgent need for significant system upgrades across Its high school campus. The primary school building, the Cameron Building, and the Shop Building were without mechanical cooling, heating systems were outdated, and the domestic water piping infrastructure was failing.
To address these pressing needs, the district selected Millig Design Build under a turnkey energy performance contract. The objective was multifaceted: enhance building comfort, reduce the district's energy expenditures, and bolster the facility's resilience and reliability.
