Sustainability

JAIN’s primary focus is on innovation in the built environment. Our team of engineers, technologists, energy analysts and LEED® facilitators ensure that every building we are involved with is as green as possible, while remaining conscious of functional and financial impacts that sustainability may have on the project. Occupant comfort and performance are primary considerations, as are public interest and engagement.

 

Our firm offers a variety of services related to sustainability including design of renewable energy systems, simulation of all aspects of building physics/systems, and assistance to projects that would like to pursue LEED® or other types of green certifications.
