CHP Business Impact Scenario
Boston Park Plaza
The Boston Park Plaza Hilton faces challenges including seasonal demand fluctuations, high operating costs, and regulatory expenses. The hotel's high energy use for heating and cooling 740,000 square feet, combined with environmental compliance costs, impacts its profitability.
Implementing Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems can cut operating costs by over 3 percentage points and help meet environmental regulations. Utilizing the Federal Historic Tax Credit (HTC) along with Massachusetts incentives like the Mass Save Program and Renew Boston Trust can significantly offset investment costs, boosting both financial and environmental performance for the 1,060-room hotel.

CHP Business Impact Scenarios use current energy data to make projections and exclude financing and incentives to estimate the Internal Rate of Return and Ten-Year Value. These figures are preliminary estimates, with more accurate projections to be determined by the Combined Heat & Power Primary Energy Accelerator.
