About
The new Medford Police Station opened in December 2020. On its roof is a 60 kW solar system, fully owned by the city, which helps power the station. The building itself is highly energy-efficient and uses half the energy that it would consume if it was built to only meet the current energy code. The station uses zero fossil fuels for its heating, cooling, and ventilation systems, and instead, relies on heat pumps and a highly efficient energy recovery ventilation system
