Stantec Consulting Services Inc. Honored for the Research Support Facility for National Renewable Energy Laboratory

Continuing our series on the recent Engineering in Excellence Awards, an Honor Award was given to the San Francisco office of Stantec Consulting Services for the firm’s work on the Research Support Facility, National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado. Now the nation’s largest building designed to achieve net-zero energy use—this 222,000 square-foot facility allows its 800 occupants to consume only the amount of energy generated by the renewable power on and near the building. An inspired and bold vision brought to reality by a progressive and dedicated Design-Build team, this building has set a truly remarkable standard and example for the industry.
