Скачать или смотреть The Largest Passive House Office Building in the World

Winthrop Center is engineered for optimal energy savings and has achieved Passive House certification, a more rigorous global standard for efficiency than LEED Platinum.

Achieving energy efficiency on this scale required the invention of a new kind of curtain wall—one that had never been made before. Passive House’s high standards, combined with Boston's northern climate, made this mission imperative. By eliminating wasteful thermal bridging and maximizing air-tightness through triple-glazed windows, Winthrop Center uses 65% less energy than the average LEED Platinum building in Boston. It has become a beacon for the future of energy efficiency in modern urban office buildings.
