The buildings in which we work, live, learn, and play threaten our climate, our economy, and our health while also posing an increasing financial risk to owners and investors. As the biggest consumers of power, buildings can literally make or break the critical transition to a low-carbon energy future.
We're setting the building industry on a path to, or beyond, net-zero energy in new and existing building portfolios and at the district level.
We're bringing building efficiency into the age of the portfolio owner with an innovative, hands-on, mass-customized approach to commercial retrofits.
We're unlocking U.S. homeowner investment in energy efficiency and renewable energy to create better homes for our families, our pocketbooks, and the environment.
We work in both developed and developing markets to increase demand for more productive buildings by demonstrating exceptional value—beyond energy cost savings—to owners, occupants, and the environment. We are shifting the paradigm of building energy use from one focused on cost reduction, to one focused on energy productivity; supporting the global transition to a clean, cost-effective, renewably-powered electricity system.
