Last week, Stephen Turner sat on the Industry Innovation Panel in the public forum on “Building Rhode Island’s Workforce with Energy Efficiency Programs” hosted by the Rhode Island Energy Efficiency and Resource Management Council (EERMC) to discuss how energy efficiency is contributing to RI's economy through job creation and energy savings. By engaging in dialog about adapting to a changing industry in light of new policies and incentives, and training and retaining new and incumbent workers, we begin to understand the challenges and opportunities at the intersection of workforce and energy. |

The project consisted of renovating the existing building and the new construction of an addition at 280 Brook Street. This mixed-use facility is 31,000 square feet. The existing wood framed structure was renovated into a three-story plus mezzanine building and a steel framed, curtain-walled, three-story plus penthouse addition, housing offices, meeting spaces, a large classroom, cafe, and a three-story multi-function atrium space.
The expansion project was designed and constructed to meet the University’s requirements that the project reduces energy use by at least 25% (31% realized) compared to current energy codes. The project will comply with the requirements of LEED v4 BD+C New Construction and Major Renovation and is currently pursuing LEED-NC Silver certification.

The Building Commissioning Association Northeast Chapter awarded Stephen Turner Inc. an Honorable Mention in the New Construction Category of the chapter's 2017 Commissioning Project Awards for the Brown University School of Engineering project. The award was jointly presented to Brown University and Stephen Turner, Inc. in recognition of the commissioning services performed on the project and the owner's commitment to the commissioning process. Stephen Turner Inc. performed LEED Fundamental and Enhanced Commissioning services on Brown University's School of Engineering Project and commissioning was an integral part of the Integrated Project Delivery process and the project’s success.
The MIT W34 Johnson Ice Rink Chiller Replacement Project consisted of the demolition of the existing DX refrigerant brine chiller and the installation of an anhydrous ammonia refrigerant (R-717) brine chiller, ventilation system, and an ammonia detection system. Stephen Turner Inc. commissioned the new chiller, ventilation system, and ammonia detection system, wrote the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), and documented the sequences of operation and setpoints for these systems. This ammonia chiller was the first of its kind at MIT.
Stephen Turner, president of Stephen Turner Inc., and Gary Hebner, senior project manager and electrical lead, have earned Certified Commissioning Professional certification from the Building Commissioning Certification Board.
As the only two registered CCPs in the state of Rhode Island, the certification is an affirmation of their experience and expertise in executing all aspects of the commissioning process. CCP certification is the standard for commissioning providers, and is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and recognized by the Better Buildings Workforce Guidelines Program.
