Submit Design Projects by August 28
Join the growing number of architects taking the ENERGY STAR Challenge. See if your Office, K-12 School, and other commercial building design projects achieve EPA’s designation for superior energy efficiency–ENERGY STAR, known for qualified products, homes, and commercial building designs.
A/E firms that take the ENERGY STAR Challenge will be recognized at the 2009 NOMA Conference in St. Louis and the 2010 American Institute of Architects (AIA) National Convention in Miami.
Don't forget to attend, at the NOMA Conference, the presentation How Low Can You Go? Targeting Carbon Neutral Design with ENERGY STAR. Check the conference brochure for time and location.
