Energy Conservation
Across Cox Enterprises, programs are in place to conserve
energy. Some of the projects include: energy-efficient building
designs; heating, ventilation and air conditioning; and lighting,
among others. To date, Cox's Energy Conservation projects have
reduced more than 16,000 tons of carbon.
A sampling of Cox's Energy Conservation:
- Cox Enterprises' corporate headquarters facility in Atlanta
received the ENERGY STAR certification as a result of its
eco-friendly design features and usage.
- In New England, Cox Communications has an advanced lighting and
HVAC control system that automatically shuts down portions of the
building during off-hours. This equipment is expected to yield a 30
percent energy savings. Aging boilers were replaced with new
energy-efficient boiler systems that reduce energy consumption by
40 percent.
- WPXI-TV, a Cox television station in Pittsburgh, constructed an
eco-friendly building from the ground up. Seventy-five percent of
the building has a raised floor, which makes heating and cooling
the building 25 percent more efficient.
