Building Design & Energy Use
4. Alternative Energy
Resources
- The Milwaukee River Flushing Station, Milwaukee, WI utilizes
a geothermal heating and cooling system that replaces a
conventional HVAC system. This has resulted in an estimated
39% reduction in heating costs and a 61% reduction in cooling
costs.
|
Alternative conventional and renewable energy sources reduce your
energy costs and your impact on natural resources.
- Purchase power generated from renewable sources (solar, wind,
biomass, or low-impact hydro sources) through We Energies' Energy
for Tomorrow Program (LEED™).
- Consider closed-loop ground-source (geothermal) heating and
cooling (LEED™).
