A classroom located in the mechanical room provides a live learning lab for students. The building has an impressive Energy Use Intensity (EUI) of less than 20 kbtu/sf. The building’s photovoltaic array can generate 30KW of power, which is more than enough to power all of the interior and exterior LED lights 24/7.
