Alex,

I read about your facility and heard about your amazing energy and building monitoring system. From what I read you are the First Net Zero Electric Commercial building in the US. Thats amazing!

The info said your building is about 42,000 sqft, about 100 employees and a 50/50 mix of offices and shop. How the heck did you manage to become net zero electric?

This is the same place and monitoring system featured in HPAC magazing Nov 2006 - article titled Net Zero Energy Buildiing right?

If so would there be a chance to work with the team that did the building and designed the monitoring system? If so what is the best way to move forward?

PS The images of your monitoring system are amazing - glad to hear you got the patent and trade mark from what I read.

Alex,

Just saw your press release. WOW!!

" For Immediate Release: Already Green!

First commercial building to achieve Net Zero Electric

Branchburg , NJ , July 12,2007- For the first time a commercial facility in
the US produced enough electrical energy from a renewable energy source to
meet its entire electric utility demand for a full year. Ferreira
Construction headquarters in Branchburg NJ, utilizes renewable energy to
produce all of the electricity needed to operate their 42,000 sq ft
building, a combination of office and shop space.

The 31 Tannery Project exceeded expectations by not only producing all of
the electric energy needed to run this facility but generated a surplus of
energy. This "green" energy surplus was made available for use by other
businesses to reduce their carbon footprint and use of fossil fuels. The
project team invented a new proprietary, patent-pending energy efficiency
and building system monitoring solution which proved critical to their
success . This monitoring system can now be shared nation wide to help
other companies significantly reduce their energy consumption

The US Dept. of Energy has set a goal that renewable energy buildings will
be commercially viable by 2025. The 31 Tannery Project and Ferreira
Construction have completed a major step forward to achieving the goal set
by the DOE. A key element of this amazing project is 100% return on
investment in just 5 to 7 years. The project team is committed to sharing
this impressive design with the US DOE and the state of NJ. It is the goal
of Ferreira Construction and the 31 Tannery Project to educate and provide
other companies with the tools to utilize standard building designs,
renewable energy, high efficiency systems, and their new patent-pending
monitoring system to spread this energy efficiency strategy across the US .

Joseph Grabowski and Ed Brzezowski, the team responsible for the technology
implemented, look forward to sharing this success and welcome all inquiries.

Have there been any reports regarding this facility or other projects claiming similar provable results? I am trying to design a re-hab of an existing historical brick and concrete building and could use all the help I can get. G

I am guessing, there is no data (new or old) to support the zero electric office building to date. I am still collecting any information available toward that end. Gary
