Summary

Montenay is a 4,300 SF office facility for an existing incinerator/power generation plant.

This building utilizes waste energy from the plant for in-floor radiant cooling and heating of the interior coupled with optimized thermal massing and external shading devices. The building is 100% naturally ventilated taking advantage of wind driven stack effects through automated windows. Rain water harvesting has been incorporated with water-efficient plumbing to completely eliminate potable water used for toilets. Montenay generates most of its power from skylight integrated photovoltaic panels and the remainder is purchased from the grid through green power sources. The project is targeting LEED Platinum certification.
