Zero Annual Energy Demand
Net Zero Initiative
Aims to achieve buildings with annual net energy demand of zero through innovative design and renewable integration.
- Perform energy simulations in early design phases at no extra charge to clients.
- Plan for ‘solar‑ready’ buildings by estimating PV capacity and incorporating infrastructure for future installation.
- Use building performance & energy modeling, passive design, daylighting, LCCA, energy & water audits, solar feasibility studies.
- Commitment to design systems that minimize carbon footprint and provide healthy spaces (‘every day is Earth Day’).
- Commissioning and sustainability departments work together to meet project sustainability goals.
- Lean on EPA guidance: reducing building energy use as cost‑effective greenhouse gas reduction.
- Integrate renewable energy planning and modeling to balance envelope, systems sizing, and PV options.
- High‑performance energy design strategies (e.g., heat‑pump chillers, occupancy‑based VAV, waste‑heat recovery, thermal storage) especially in 24/7 facilities.
- Water conservation via rainwater harvesting, low‑flow fixtures, condensate recovery.
- Net Zero target: achieve net zero energy buildings through continuous modeling, design trade‑offs, and solar readiness.
Inclusion & Diversity
- Celebrated women engineers on International Women in Engineering Day, emphasizing female perspectives challenge ideas and serve as role models.
- No explicit gender ratio or DEI metrics found on public site or LinkedIn.
