Rife International’s Innovative Energy Efficient Solutions to Make Residence Halls Green and Cut Energy Costs for the University of Maryland

Rife International, LLC was selected as an energy efficiency solutions contractor to the University of Maryland College Park (UMCP) and saved the university several thousand dollars in lighting costs annually.

The project included the removal and recycling of existing T-8 2x4 florescent light fixtures and installing new energy efficient T-5 2x2 florescent fixtures. The project also included modifying the dropped ceiling, ceiling grid, and ceiling tile where needed. The lighting upgrades saved UMCP’s Elkton Hall over $10,000 annually.

Ryan Reich of UMCP stated, “Rife delivered a quality product on time and under budget. They also provided excellent customer service and responded to our questions quickly. We look forward to working with them on additional energy efficiency projects.”

“We have a commitment to making educational institutions more energy efficient since this is where our future leaders can learn the value of being green. Our project at UMPC begins our process of making campuses around the United States and overseas more green” says CEO Kwabena Osei-Sarpong.
