Study conducted by architectural firm KieranTimberlake finds Kingspan QuadCore panels contain
far lower levels of embodied carbon than concrete, mineral wool alternatives.
Unlike operational carbon, which can be reduced throughout a building’s lifetime, embodied carbon is locked in as soon as a building is constructed. As such, tracking embodied carbon is critical
The design team, consisting of ZGF Cotter Architects, Fast + Epp structural engineers, and ITC Construction Group, paid close attention to energy-saving measures at the building envelope to minimize costs and carbon footprint, and improve occupant comfort
The buildings sector has accounted for 66 percent of the total decrease energy-related U.S. CO2 emissions. Much of the decrease is attribute to the electric power sector’s decrease in carbon intensity of generation as well as increased energy performance of our building stock
International engineering firm Walter P Moore has released a groundbreaking stewardship report entitled Embodied Carbon, A Clearer View of Carbon Emissions.
Dow’s carbon partnerships within the Olympic Movement have delivered third-party verified emission reductions of more than 5.1 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent.
Carbon Challenge conducted with USGBC pushed property owners to engage and excel, collectively demonstrated continual GHG emission reductions across 63 building projects in Northern Asia.
New research shows just how well energy-efficient windows, doors and skylights—referred to as fenestration products by industry professionals—can lower energy use and prevent additional pollution.
