PRESS RELEASE - SPOOKY NOOK SPORTS
PRESS RELEASE
For immediate release: May 14, 2019
Contact: Jon Porreca jon@a1energy.com
Spooky Nook Sports Completes LED Retrofit with ZERO upfront cost
A1 Energy applies strategic financing to secure larger than expected PPL rebate for Nook Sports
Manheim, PA - The largest sports facility in the U.S., Spooky Nook Sports, continues their commitment to sustainability with the nearly complete, full facility LED retrofit project. The project will save 1.2 million kWh and was partially funded by a $239,107 PPL Electric Utilities rebate secured by A1 Energy Consultants.
Spooky Nook Sports facility spans 700,000 sq. ft and over 50 acres, which now shines a more sustainable light with newly installed LEDs. The large-scale sports facility holds ten basketball courts, six tennis courts, a baseball diamond, and is home to the national women’s USA Field Hockey team. The retrofit included changing out 3,610 lighting fixture swaps to high-efficiency LEDs.
A1 Energy was instrumental in Nook Sports securing the funds necessary to avoid all of the upfront costs for the LED Retrofit. While the energy team at Spooky Nook Sports knew they would be able to secure some rebate funds from PPL, they were pleasantly surprised by the $239,107 rebate check which was higher than expected.
"A1 Energy, together with Lapp Electric, are nearing completion of a full facility LED lighting retrofit at Spooky Nook Sports. The project not only improves light levels throughout the facility but saves over 1.2 million kWh which is 43% of the building's lighting load and decreases greenhouse gas emissions by 2.1 million lbs. Spooky Nook Sports is paying for the project out of the savings through financing that A1 Energy coordinated with NO upfront out-of-pocket capital," stated Mike Porreca, Project Manager from A1 Energy.
On April 24, 2019, PPL Electric presented Spooky Nook Sports alongside A1 Energy with their utility rebate check for $239,107. Spooky Nook Sports’ path toward sustainability and A1 Energy Consultants strategic financing abilities have led to significant savings and a positive environmental impact for the local community.

MOUNT JOY WIRE HOLDS RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY TO LAUNCH NEW GREEN ENERGY SYSTEM
Natural gas fueled unit funded in part by a PA Green Energy Works Grant through the PA Department of Environmental Protection
On December 8, 2011, Mount Joy Wire Corporation officially commissioned the new Combined Heat and Power (CHP) System with a special ribbon cutting ceremony and plant tour attended by a variety of business leaders and state and local dignitaries.
The CHP is a natural gas fueled generator that will ultimately produce as much as half the electricity needed to power the specialty wire manufacturing facility while using residual heat to help supply the facility’s steam and hot water needs. $1.3 million of the system’s $1.7 million cost was paid for by a Green Energy Works grant, through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and the PA DEP.
“The event was a great success, and we are excited to have the CHP up and running to help us meet increased demand for Mount Joy Wire products,” states Tom Duff, President and CEO. “We want to extend a special thank you to the people who made all of this possible, especially A1 Energy, Borton Lawson Engineering, and Northeast Energy Systems.”
