Why this belongs on a sustainability directory
Building commissioning that delivers a documented 15 to 30% average annual energy reduction, applied across more than 500 institutional clients over 25 years, gives SDG7 (affordable and clean energy) a real, repeatable mechanism rather than a one-off retrofit case study. Working specifically with schools, hospitals, and universities also connects that energy-efficiency work to SDG11 (sustainable cities and communities), since these are exactly the long-lived, publicly-facing buildings where efficiency gains compound over decades.
