November 12, 2007—To assist building owners and facility managers, Siemens Building Technologies, Inc. offers its Green Building Web page, a comprehensive source of facts and relevant information that aims to help visitors initiate a meaningful dialogue on how to incorporate green practices.
The Green Building page is modular and divided into six windows so visitors can easily navigate the site and find pertinent information fast. Beginning with the introductory “About” window, the company’s Energy and Environmental Solutions (EES) team describes how Siemens can help identify and implement systems and procedures to achieve virtually any organization’s Green Building visions and goals.
In the Life-Cycle window, EES experts outline Siemens’ holistic approach to green buildings which begins with well-planned design and construction and assures as-specified environmental quality over the long term through sound and effective operating and maintenance practices. Existing facilities are addressed as well, and the page offers owners even more opportunities and insight into renewal strategies that will support greening strategies across any enterprise.
The LEED Certification window offers an in-depth portal into the universe of LEED certification and what it takes to achieve this coveted high-profile designation.
The site also offers easy-to-use online tools, including LEED Certification tool, a greenhouse gas cCalculator and The Green Guide for Healthcare tool-kit.
