..."The pilot program is geared toward bigger commercial buildings, multifamily projects, and large campuses like the one Alexandria Real Estate Equities is building. Kinno said that there are examples of the sewer heat recovery technology “being used in residential communities in other parts of the world.”
The program uses the county’s sewage, but Kinno added that a building can “recapture the heat that is generated within your own building.”
This option is more accessible than tapping into the county’s sewage system.
A total of five Alexandria Real Estate Equities’s buildings are participating in the pilot program. They are located on 701 Dexter Avenue North, 601 Dexter Avenue North, 400 Dexter Avenue North, and 800 Mercer Street.
The new heating system is expected to be active in 2025."
