The buildings HVAC system incorporated a classical vertical bore geothermal water source heat pump system with wells reaching to 400’. The lighting system is full LED and consists of various decorative light fixtures and control schemes for different areas. The roof of the Bullitt County Library houses a 40,000 square foot solar array which that is integrated to a battery storage system. The battery storage system was optimized to store energy via the solar array or at night during off peak hours, and then discharge this energy during the day to mitigate peak usage charges. The solar array was designed to offset 50% of the energy utilized by the facility on a yearly basis.
