Implementation Highlights

As we learn how to make our daily environment more energy efficient, comfortable, and healthy, it is important to reflect back on the stories and accomplishments that have been achieved so far. Because of that, we encourage the submission of stories for this page to be recognized by the wider building science community, and to serve as a guiding path to others who may be interested.

Tell us your story. Let us know how you’re using Building Science Education materials and your story may be turned into an Implementation Highlight. For more information, contact bsesc@pnnl.gov.
