We’ve heard from clients how challenging it can be to clearly understand the benefits of electrification as it’s being implemented in projects. Meet the Energy and Emissions Estimator interactive tool we built in partnership with Portland General Electric.   If you are an architect, developer, owner, or even a curious bystander, the easy-to-use tool is an evidence-based way to demonstrate the positive impact of highly efficient all-electric building solutions. With some basic building details, the interactive tool calculates the operating emissions savings over 20 years for different building design options.    We hope you give it a try so our region can clearly understand the benefits of electrification. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gDpcwhms

“Trust is a cornerstone of our relationships with our clients, our employees, our design team partners, and I think part of what builds trust is transparency and honesty.” PAE President and CEO, Christian J. Agulles, PE, recently spoke with Nick Rockel at Fortune on how embedding sustainability into the core of our business helps build trust with clients looking for innovative solutions to reduce embodied and operational carbon: https://bit.ly/3UZNDWZ “As sustainability in building systems has become more in fashion, people are very sensitive to the idea of greenwashing. They’re paying very, very close attention to all of the things that you do in how you run your business, the culture of your organization, to make sure that sustainability is embedded within your culture and not something layered on top.” 

It's PAE's John Lansing, CPD, LEED Green Associate in the New York Times! John spoke about how right-sized pipes can save owners money while also boosting water quality and public health: "We don’t want to be installing pipes larger than we need,” Mr. Lansing said. “It’s like installing a 10-lane freeway out to a small town. Hypothetically, there could be a concert out there once every 10 years, but do we really want to design for that? Do we want to pay for that? The answer is no. Not only is it expensive, but there’s energy loss implications, reduces the water quality in the building. To a certain extent, it increases the public health risk.” Unlocked article in comments.

The PAE Diversity in Engineering Scholarship, our partnership with AFO, is launching in 2025! With this scholarship, we aim to support racial and gender diversity within the engineering profession, providing mentorship and career support to the next generation.
