Zero Net Energy Case Study Buildings: Volume 1
Many thanks to the following clients, users and designers of these ZNE buildings who gave generously of their time to provide all of the information and insights into various aspects of their design and performance. They share an obvious pride in their work and a commitment to the goal of a future of sustainably designed buildings.
Craig Neyman, Vice-President and CFO, David & Lucile Packard Foundation
For the perspective of the client on the vision, design and use of a zero-net-energy building, particularly as the organization’s culture affects these.
Juan Uribe, Building Engineer, David & Lucile Packard Foundation
In particular, for the insights into the unique building control system at the Packard Founda- tion Headquarters building.
