Knowing How to Measure a Green Building can Help Sell Renewable Energy

摘要

The renewable energy industry could benefit greatly by targeting green building projects. This is true for project teams setting up systems for distributed renewable energy generation on building sites, the manufacturers of the system components, and many other ancillary businesses with a stake in a building's energy performance. Furthermore, if the diffusion of renewable energy technology has been slow to gain market traction, the LEED program could be a significant driving force for expediting the growth of BIPV and utility scale installations, as well as other renewable generation systems and energy storage systems.
