There are multiple definitions of sustainability. All the definitions marry the following themes:
Sustainable engineering design is integral to our design philosophy at Encon Group. We strive to implement sustainable engineering practices and principles in all our design by seeking integrated opportunities for energy and water recycling, and for high performance MEP systems. Our projects have continued to focus on advancing the science of sustainable solutions by integrating engineering and architectural systems and applying the latest techniques to inform design, and using the latest technology to develop our work product. Almost half the greenhouse gas emissions are attributable to buildings, and we are committed to doing something about it!
We seek opportunities for energy savings and recycling and for the integration of high performance MEP systems. Encon is a member of the USGBC nationally and the local National Capital Chapter. We are familiar with the USGBC LEED© rating system and have completed LEED© CI projects for PNC Bank, Major Universities, The United States Government and others. Encon Group is proud to have many LEED© Accredited Professionals on its technical staff.
