Alliance Corporation Builds Energy Efficient Schools
November 2009
Alliance Corporation is proud of the success and partnership we have with the
Warren County Schools. Recently the Warren County School System received the
Andromeda Star of Energy Efficiency Award in Washington, DC in recognition of
their outstanding commitment to reduce energy use in their facilities and to
educate students on the benefits of energy efficiency. Tommy Gumm, President of
Alliance Corporation attended the awards banquet with Warren County
Superintendent, Tim Murley and U.S. Congressman, Brett Guthrie who presented the
award. During his acceptance speech, Mr. Murley thanked Alliance Corporation and
Tommy Gumm for their contributions in achieving this honor.
In 2003, the Warren County School Board adopted an energy conservation and
management program for every building in the school district. Over the past five
years, Warren County Schools have saved more than $4 million, reducing
consumption by more than 28 percent. Currently, Warren County Schools have four
buildings with ENERGY STAR Certification and Alliance Corporation was the
builder for all four projects.
Alliance Corporation is currently the Construction Manager for the Warren County
School system’s new Bristow Elementary School in Bowling Green, Kentucky. This
is one of only three NetZero school projects in United States.
