Howard University Selects Retail Supplier Affiliate For 20-Year Energy Partnership

ENGIE North America announced today that it has furthered its relationship with Howard University by executing a long-term agreement for the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of a new central utility plant on Howard’s campus located in Washington, D.C.

The new central utility plant will provide both electric and steam services for buildings on campus. Under this agreement, ENGIE will design and construct the new plant and once complete, provide operations and maintenance services over the next 20 years.

The new, modern steam plant will be a combined heat and power (CHP) plant, which will generate 35-40 percent of the University’s electric consumption on site. ENGIE plans to begin construction in late-February with expected completion in late 2022.
