The Massachusetts Energy Policy Office sits in the 22 story McCormack Building on Beacon Hill. Deputy director Paul Levy notes limited energy efficiency due to windows that won’t open and centralized lighting controls.

Beard, a long serving lawmaker, reflects on life in politics and his push to improve efficiency while balancing public service and personal cost.
