Today leading global integrated design firm, Perkins+Will launched the 2030 e2 Energy Estimating Tool. This free online tool was created to assist Perkins+Wills designers in designing buildings to achieve the 2030 challenge. Specifically, 2030 e2 allows users to set target goals for four key areas: energy efficiency, green power offsets, on-site renewable energy, and grid-supplied renewable energy when designing new buildings or retrofitting existing buildings. In response to the urgency of global climate change, Perkins+Will has decided to make the beta tool publicly available.
“Perkins+Will is committed to meeting the 2030 Challenge and has proactively built the estimating tool to support our designers as they strive to achieve the Challenge reduction goals,” said Doug Pierce, Perkins+Will Senior Associate, AIA, LEED AP
