Join us as we discuss the true level of creativity involved to achieve a passive, energy-efficient design while still taking project budget and environmental cost into account. Called "Triple Bottom-Line Accounting", it requires ingenuity, a good deal of energy-modeling, and a project leader brave enough to do a sustainable cost-benefit analysis.Whatever building type or size, decreasing operational energy results in a healthier, more comfortable environment both inside and out, and we discuss the huge impact high-performing mixed-use and multi-family buildings can have given their larger size and scope. Show Notes:Season Sponsor - www.sustainablehomesofthefuture.comContact Host - [email protected]
