Energy Efficiency Gets A Green Light At NECA 2008 Chicago

摘要

According to a recent report from the American Institute of Architects, programs designed to encourage more environmentally friendly building construction have grown by 400 percent in U.S. cities since 2003. The movement toward more green building has gained considerable momentum as politicians, city officials and builders focus on the degree to which buildings and their construction contribute to greenhouse gases. This report and many others like it are a clear indication that green building is the leading trend shaping construction and design these days, and NECA 2008 Chicago, October 4-7, will provide electrical contractors with tools to help customers meet their own green building goals, whether in achieving Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification, making buildings more energy efficient, or using renewable energy technology in construction projects.
