Design an eco-friendly commercial strip mall that incorporates energy efficient technology to maximize energy conservation

Methodology In order to create an effective energy efficient structure, I must: Design a strip mall Incorporate different energy saving techniques into one design Keep the cost of the project low Minimize energy consumption Create a new and unique design.

Green Design Factors Low E Windows Solar Power Water Recycling System LED Lighting Evaporating Water System

Low-E Windows

Solar Power Solar Power can reduce energy usage up to 40%. The cost of solar energy is high but is no where near as high as the saving that come with it.

Water Recycle System System that recycles grey water and uses it for toilet system and sprinkler system. Cuts water usage in half.

LED Lighting Using LED lighting instead of regular light bulbs increases light intensity while decreasing power usage.

Evaporating Cooling System As water heat it evaporates into the air in turn cooling the air. Also the water acts as a reflective surface which deflects the sunlight away the surface cooling the area around it.
