"Building Green"
Meet Us in Santa Fe · June 2-4
NCATC Among First to Experience Sustainable Technologies Center |
Santa Fe Community College will host the 2010 Summer Workshop on June 2, 3, and 4. NCATC is excited its members will be among the first to see SFCC's new Sustainable Technologies Center, scheduled for completion in June. The Center is the result of the state of New Mexico's favorable policy climate promoting the emergence of viable private sector companies based in the green economy and the tremendous support of the Santa Fe community for the project. Don't miss this opportunity to see and hear about SFCC's commitment to "Building Green."

On the morning of Friday, June 4, workshop participants will visit Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) and The Bradbury Science Museum. Several tours will be offered including green/smart grid applications. LANL is a premier national security research institution, delivering scientific and engineering solutions for the nation's most crucial and complex problems.
During the afternoon of the 4th, participants will tour the award-winning Emerald Home which is an exemplary model of how a high-end custom home can produce its own energy. It will achieve a Net-Zero designation and corresponding H.E.R.S. (Home Energy Rating System) index of 0 and is projected to receive the LEED for Homes Platinum designation. |
