ABOUT IT
Piracanjuba's administrative headquarters in Goiânia was planned and built in accordance with environmental sustainability criteria, in harmony with the environment and promoting well-being for those who visit the site. The building has achieved LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Platinum level certification, making it one of the ten best-rated sustainable buildings in the world in the LEED New Construction category. In all, there are 8,000 square meters of built area, designed with eco-efficiency concepts, infrastructure and state-of-the-art technology.
Results and Objectives
Completed in 2018, the Piracanjuba building has 24% of its energy consumption covered by photovoltaic panels, as well as energy-efficient electrical and air-conditioning installations. As a result, the building saves 50% more energy in relation to similar buildings.
With regard to water, savings of 47% have been achieved through the adoption of efficient sanitary appliances and the reuse of rainwater and treated gray water for irrigation of gardens and flushing toilets.
The project also has exclusive parking spaces for economical vehicles and for those who form carpool groups. A bike rack with 32 spaces and a changing room with showers also serve as an invitation to employees who choose to use bicycles for their commute.
