New Hampshire hospitals are working to prevent illness by reducing pollution from energy use, according to an article on the Concord Monitor website.
Through energy efficiency measures and switching to cleaner energy sources, several New Hampshire hospitals have decreased polluting emissions by as much as 85 percent, saving millions of dollars, the article said.
Hospitals have moved to LED lighting, installed high-efficiency HVAC equipment, and invested in combined heat and power systems that save energy while providing power if the grid goes down.
For instance, in 2013, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center converted its boilers from No. 6 fuel oil to compressed natural gas.
