Futureproofing Buildings is Our Present

Written by Power Design | Sep 22, 2023 8:46:00 PM

It’s electric! Well, it’s actually energy. Energy is becoming one of the fast-growing sectors in our industry right now and how to utilize it is becoming a common conversation we are having with our partners daily. 

 

Energy-related system demands are increasing exponentially because these systems are now becoming a necessity, not a nice to have, and driven by the buildings’ end users and the code requirements from local and state entities. According to Bloomberg Green, in the past year alone we’ve seen almost 1 million new electric vehicles hit the road. To put it into perspective – it took the United States 10 years to sell its first million of fully electric vehicles and two years to sell the next million, now it only took 12 months to sell another million.  

 

With the energy sector growing and becoming an integral part of our industry, our Energy Manager Mike Kuhn explains some of the trends we are seeing that are influencing how we strategically approach energy-related integration into projects.
