MOVING ARCHITECTS TOWARD BUILDING PERFORMANCE
Paul Welschmeyer, principal of Bay Area architectural design firm Paul Welschmeyer Architects, has recently contracted with Pacific Gas & Electric’s (PG&E’s) Energy Efficiency Training Centers to present the importance of integrating increased energy efficiency measures into architects designs.
Welschmeyer’s presentation explains the benefits of incorporating applied building science methods, energy modeling and HERS II Rating services into their professional practices, which will enhance their ability to eliminate unintentional energy waste in the buildings they design. These consultation services are coordinated with the launching of the Energy Upgrade California (EUC) campaign program and are focused on direct informational contact with the leadership groups of architectural firms in California.
“Energy efficiency begins with the elimination of unintentional waste,” says Welschmeyer.
