There are fewer than 500 emerging net zero projects in the country (per the New Buildings Institute tracking) and we are proud to be the lead consultant on the nation’s third Passive House and Living Building Challenge Petal Certification project. It is also the 1st Energy Petal-certified project in California, the 9th Energy Petal-certified project ever, and the 18th ILFI-certified project in California.
The Perlita Passive House project is a net positive building – producing more energy than it consumes annually. The project includes solar panels and Tesla Powerwall battery storage. Verdical Group completed Living Building Challenge Petal Certification project management for this first-of-its-kind project, which won the USGBC-LA Sustainable Innovation Honor Award in the Energy Category in 2019.
