Cutting-Edge Design Elevates Energy Education

Featuring an innovative geothermal system and a comprehensive heat recovery system, this educational facility exemplifies sustainable design in the energy sector. With remarkable efficiency, the system enhances indoor air quality by leveraging natural earth temperatures to precondition outside air, supporting the building's Silver-level LEED Certification goals. Green features prominently include stormwater management, high recycled content in construction materials, and substantial use of local resources. The facility encompasses state-of-the-art training labs, an auditorium, and diverse learning spaces like the Bavendick State Room, and it is continuously upgraded with outdoor solar arrays and wind towers to promote hands-on learning and innovation.
