The Green at 9&90 is a part of RENU CommunitiesTM
RENU is an energy solutions provider that delivers decarbonized energy retrofits to existing communities. Through the RENU process, The Green will be undergoing a substantial effort to reduce carbon emissions by improving the property’s energy efficiency and offsetting the community’s energy consumption through on-site renewable energy production.
As a result, The Green is expected to avoid 2,642 tons of carbon emissions each year.
The Green at 9 & 90 has earned the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s ENERGY STAR certification for the 2024 calendar year with an outstanding ENERGY STAR score of 100! Placing in the top 1% of similar properties nationwide, The Green at 9 & 90 is setting the standard for energy efficiency. This achievement reflects a year of superior energy performance, resulting in lower energy use, cost savings, and a reduced environmental impact. By meeting the EPA’s standards, we are not only saving energy and money but also contributing to a greener, more sustainable future!
SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC (PV) SYSTEM
PV Systems are solar panels that can convert light into electricity. This renewable energy technology can be used to offset energy consumption from the electrical grid to achieve carbon neutrality.
Resident Benefits Include:
- Clean electricity
- Reduced demand for fossil fuels from power plants
ENERGY MONITORING SYSTEM
The energy monitoring system is a small piece of hardware that connects to an electrical panel to measure energy consumption and production. The system allows property managers to detect faults and allow residents to understand their energy consumption.
Resident Benefits Include:
- Improved equipment fault detection
- Greater energy insight
COLD CLIMATE HEAT PUMP HVAC SYSTEM
This new electric split-ductless HVAC system consists of an indoor air handler and an outdoor unit connected via two refrigerant lines. This system is highly efficient and varies its speed to precisely meet your heating or cooling needs.
Resident Benefits Include:
- Lower monthly energy bills, depending on individual usage
- Reduced noise
- Improved comfort and airflow
- New equipment with reduced service calls
- Greater temperature control
- Heating and cooling from one source
