BetterBricks.com promotes energy efficiency for building professionals

August 2, 2002—BetterBricks, an initiative of the Portland-based Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance, has launched a new Web site, designed, to help commercial building professionals take advantage of the design and financial benefits of energy efficiency.

The program is aimed at the commercial building community, including architects, building owners, operators and developers, mechanical and electrical engineers, lighting designers, interior designers, real estate brokers, and real estate investment trust fund managers.

BetterBricks.com is designed for commercial building professionals who want information and assistance on how to incorporate innovative, energy-effective designs into their next new building or remodel.

The site is funded by the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance, a group of electric utilities, state governments, public interest groups and efficiency industry representatives committed to bringing affordable, energy-efficient products and services to the marketplace.

The new site, developed by ZAAZ, a Web design and technology consultancy, offers real-world examples of how building professionals have successfully used energy efficiency as a design tool and financial strategy, the site delivers resources related to energy-efficient design and construction.

As part of the BetterBricks proposition, the building community can also take advantage of BetterBricks’ advisors, research assistance and access to lighting labs.

To be eligible for BetterBricks Advisor or Hotline services, a building project must be located in the Northwest states of Idaho, Montana, Oregon or Washington. Through the support of the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance, BetterBricks provides most services free of charge. For more information, contact BetterBricks.
