Carbon Footprint / GHG Baseline Studies
Sustainable Biotech provides carbon footprint and GHG baseline study services to establish the baseline scenario of GHG emissions for your plant or campus.

Carbon / GHG Emissions Reduction Projects
Sustainable Biotech provides services for planning, designing and reporting GHG projects. Our services include identifying GHG sources, sinks and reservoirs relevant to the project, monitoring, documenting and reporting GHG project performance and ensuring data quality and integrity throughout the validation and verification processes.


Discovery in SustainabilityTM

During the Conceptual Design phase, the Discovery in SustainabilityTM method is employed to identify design options in sustainability. It is intended to inform the preliminary design charrette of potential problems and opportunities. The advantage is that sustainability and LEED credits are built into the project, allowing for seamless systems integration.

The output of the Discovery in SustainabilityTM is a report that includes an analysis of the built environment, building systems and processes.
