The Hewlett Foundation- LEED Gold This energy storage system helps meet LEED standards by optimizing energy performance. In fact, California’s stringent building code, Title 24, was exceeded by 35% as a result of the optimization. First LEED Gold CERTIFIED building in California Overview LEED certi?cation distinguishes building projects that have demonstrated a commitment to sustainability by meeting the highest performance standards. “Thermal storage cooling reduces greenhouse emissions and uses less energy because it uses electricity, which is produced at night by the utilities' most efficient generating plants,” said Igor Tartakovsk, Principal, P.E. of C & B Engineers These performance standards include criteria for sustainability, water e?ciency, energy and atmosphere, materials and r
