New England Environmental—Congrats on LEED Platinum
New England Environmental, Inc.’s new headquarters in Amherst, MA just became only the fifth property in Massachusetts (and the first in Western Massachusetts) to achieve LEED Platinum Certification.
I toured this facility several months ago during a Chamber of Commerce event, and saw features such as
- Pavers that allow water to drain off driveways and parking areas
- The 40KW photovoltaic array, providing solar electric power
- Wonderful use of natural light
- Waterless urinals
The green design features of this design are expected to save the company $21,000 a year, according to today’s Daily Hampshire Gazette (warning: typically, Gazette links are only open to subscribers).
