Turn Performance Drift into Your Next Project

In the second article of our performance series, Energia’s VP of Engineering, David Newman, explores Retro-Commissioning (RCx). Discover how this systematic process not only restores a building to its original design intent but also serves as a powerful tool for identifying significant capital upgrade projects – creating new opportunities for our valued AEC partners.

Steam-to-Hot-Water Conversion Boosts Performance at Allegheny Traditional Academy

Energia oversaw the development of a comprehensive steam-to-hot-water conversion at Allegheny Traditional Academy, part of Pittsburgh Public Schools, to enhance system reliability, energy efficiency, and long-term performance.

More than an equipment upgrade, this project required deep technical insight into how legacy steam systems interact with building loads, envelope conditions, and modern hydronic controls.

Energia’s customized engineering solution delivered:

  • Lower operating costs
  • Improved thermal comfort
  • Reduced carbon emissions
  • Enhanced lifecycle performance

This project exemplifies Energia’s ability to modernize aging infrastructure with precision and sustainability in mind.

“In collaboration with Energia, we’ve smoothly transitioned from antiquated systems to state-of-the-art technologies. This accomplishment reinforces our dedication to crafting sustainable and energy-efficient educational spaces.”
— Michael McNamara, COO, Pittsburgh Public Schools
