C o n T E n T s 16 Owens Corning The Value of Good Design When Owens Corning built a new headquarters campus in 1996, it sought a flexible, sustainable and high performing building that encouraged collaboration. It met these objectives and has continued improving the building’s performance through control strategies, efficient lighting and by soliciting employee suggestions. Their experience provides valuable insight into the long-term benefits of good design. 44 Twenhofel Middle School An Energy Education Twenhofel Middle School provides an education in sustainability both inside and outside the classroom. Students compete to conserve energy and lead tours of the school’s energy-efficient features. Teachers base science and math lessons on real-time data from the school’s solar photovoltaic, geothermal HVAC, rainwater catchment and daylighting systems. 4 Bethke Elementary Green Evolution Colorado’s Poudre School District reduces energy use as well as construction costs and time by using a prototype design that is progressively improved with each new school. Bethke Elementary School is the fourth iteration of the elementary school prototype. It received an ENERGY STAR rating of 99 and uses 42 kBtu/ft2 · yr. Improvements to the prototype include more solar tubes for interior daylighting, spray foam insulation and less south glazing in classrooms. 30 Ohlone College Newark Center Dispelling the Cost Myth Ohlone College Newark Center for Health Sciences and Technology demonstrates the affordability of sustainable strategies. Geothermal heating and cooling, enthalpy wheels and a photovoltaic array helped the campus achieve net zero energy use during four months of 2008. HigH Performing Buildings Winter 2010
