Dr. Amy Thompson receives funding towards “Smart Schools”

Dr. Amy Thompson is Director of the SmartBuildings CT program, a division of the Pratt & Whitey Institute for Advanced Systems Engineering.

She recently led efforts which resulted in funding from the Department of Energy towards two “Smart Schools”. The two schools, located in Bridgeport, CT will serve as demonstration sites for other schools in the future.

By supporting equipment upgrades, the use of renewables, and implementation of smart control systems, this funding will help modernize school infrastructure, eliminate unnecessary expenditures, and reduce utilities costs.
