Insulated Panels Inc. showed off its Envelope First approach to net-zero energy
buildings at last week’s Greenbuild in Phoenix.
Kingspan showed
off its energy-modeling results, which analyzed a school, warehouse, office
building and retrofitted building. Company officials said the results showed
savings over the 2004 edition of American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and
Air-Conditioning Engineers’ standard 90.1, which deals with the energy efficiency of
most structures. Savings were also seen compared with the Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design standards and carbon monoxide emissions.
The product and
demonstrations were both well received on the show floor, Kingspan officials
said.
