Credit: ORNL, U.S. Dept. of Energy“We are committed to serving the communities that we live in,” UT-Battelle CEO and ORNL Director Stephen Streiffer said. “Our partnership with SEEED has provided a tremendous opportunity to share our scientific expertise, and we are excited that our support will help make this green solar home become a reality.
“Oak Ridge National Laboratory has been a valuable supporter of SEEED through the volunteerism of its employees, and we’re very grateful for this generous financial contribution from UT-Battelle,” said Stan Johnson, founder and executive director of SEEED. “Together, we’ll make a difference for a family, for the workers we’ll train in green building methods, and for the larger community as we rise together.
Along with the monetary donation, researchers with ORNL’s Buildings and Transportation Science Division offered technical guidance towards developing best practices for green building design based on experience with the energy impact of building materials and equipment used in constructing the home — with the goal of reaching net-zero energy consumption.
