HOUSTON, TX – The Houston Advanced Research Center (HARC) officially achieved Zero Energy status from the International Living Future Institute, which makes the HARC headquarters in The Woodlands the first commercial building in Texas to accomplish the feat.
Today, 100% of HARC’s energy needs on a net annual
basis are supplied by on-site renewable energy, made possible by a $136,000 Green Mountain Energy Sun Club grant that supported the purchase and installation of additional solar panels, associated inverters and hardware on the roof of HARC’s LEED® Platinum building.
