ENERGY STAR Multifamily Certification

November 11th, 2011

Recently KSG partnered with Performance Point out of Charlotte, NC to certify the Alta Glenridge Springs as ENERGY STAR. The project achieved certification under the Version 2.0 standards. The certification process for a multifamily project is nearly identical to detached housing, though sampling (inspecting only a portion of the units) is much more common given the “cookie cutter” similarity of the units. Wood Partners is the builder and owner of the apartment community. The project set out with the goal of achieving ENERGY STAR without breaking the budget and providing real value to their apartment customers. Although you wont find solar panels or other eco-bling on this project, you will find tight and well sealed building envelops.
