… In North America, the combination of energy efficiency and on-site sustainable energy generation is becoming more common, as front-running cities and regions look to set the new norm of building: cost-effective and sustainable. The step is long overdue, as over a third of the total energy consumption in industrialized countries results from building operation – and up to 90 per cent of this energy can be saved with Passive House.

Nashville Fabrication fabricated and installed 1,200 ft. of pipe rack across the roof of the facility without halting its operation.

This definition prioritizes energy efficiency for a good reason. Energy from renewable sources is limited and is not available to the same extent in every locale and season. Although it is quite difficult for an inefficient building to be net zero without a massive renewable energy system, the situation looks quite different if you cut a building’s energy consumption by 50-80%.

More than two centuries later, this story about Queen Square is still popular in London guidebooks. And whether or not it’s true, the neighborhood has evolved over the years as if to conform to it. A metal statue of Charlotte stands over the northern end of the square; the corner pub is called the Queen’s Larder; and the square’s quiet rectangular garden is now all but surrounded by people who work on brains and people whose brains need work.

“Back when I was a soldier on Kinmen, around 1975, the water demons still sometimes killed people,” Xu Shifu (Master Xu) said. The laugh-lines at the corners of his eyes were not visible now, even in the white fluorescent light shining down from the ceiling. “When it was my turn for guard duty at night and everyone else went down into the bunkers, I was scared. I would turn my cap backwards . . . I knew the water demons would approach from behind. But in the darkness, all they could see was a person’s silhouette. I thought that would fool them into coming at me head on.”
