Sustainable Buildings

Sustainable building initiatives are essential for meeting the energy transition goals of today while also protecting the environment for future generations. To support these initiatives, we deploy a comprehensive set of services spanning ASHRAE levels 1-3 energy auditing (for existing buildings), computer energy simulation (for existing and new buildings), energy code compliance, energy use benchmarking and carbon footprint reduction analysis. Our specialized expertise also extends to maximizing utility incentives, securing tax deductions, securing Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) financing, in short, helping our clients maximize financial incentives while achieving their sustainability goals.

Bowman’s team of skilled professionals is adept at employing green building strategies, including energy-efficient design, renewable energy integration, water conservation and sustainable materials selection. We work closely with architects, developers and contractors to help your project achieve certifications such as LEED, National Green Building Standards (NGBS), ENERGY STAR, Zero Energy Ready or Enterprise Green Communities (EGC).
