What is Sustainable Energy Development?

Buildings are the dominant force on the environment of urban landscapes. Ten percent of the global economy is geared towards meeting the construction, equipment and operation of buildings. Sustainable practices ensure a healthy environment at a lower energy cost and with the use of fewer non-renewable resources.

Sustainable design considers cradle-to-grave project implications, including the life cycle and energy costs. Also considered are materials selection, renewable processes, transportation, and sensitivity to historical preservation. The benefits of site-specific building management of waste, recycling, water resources, and indoor air quality also play an important role in sustainable design. We promote the following activities for the success of long-term sustainability initiatives:
