Saving Energy & Resources
Downey, California is the home of the new
Energy Resource Center of Southern California Gas Company. This renovated
44,572 sf facility is a symbol of energy and resource conservation. Reusing an
existing 1957 Southern California Gas Company building, it is designed to optimize energy
while maintaining a high-quality, high-performance space. Achieved through its
careful integration of lighting, heating, cooling, insulation and energy management
control systems. Design techniques and building technologies work together to
minimize heating and cooling requirements, maximize the use of natural daylight and
maintain healthful indoor air quality. |
