Innovation is rampant and inspiring and USGBC continues to lead (or should we say LEED) by example. USGBC has created a path, but it’s the responsibility of everyone involved in the construction of these buildings to help find their own way. We’ve created an open industry association that will advance green building practices through the use of rapid adoption of safe, low voltage DC power distribution and use in commercial building interiors. We’re developing a standard that integrates interior infrastructures, power, controls and a wide variety of peripheral devices, such a lighting, in a common platform. We encourage you to learn more about the benefits of DC power and it’s role in green building at http://bit.ly/mMZyS.
