High Performance Federal Building Database
The High Performance Federal Buildings Database showcases sustainable, high-performing buildings in the federal government. These buildings feature various combinations of energy-efficient practices, such as daylighting, and renewable energy technologies, such as building integrated photovoltaics. This database taps into the High Performance Buildings Database of the DOE Building Technologies Program and provides valuable project-related information. Depending on the project, this information can include details about finance, land use, building materials, and many other project elements.
Submit Case Studies to WBDG
The WBDG is seeking case study examples that demonstrate the Whole Building Design process. The template below has been developed to get at information specific to that process so that others may learn and implement these concepts into future projects:
