We propose building a Green Energy District as the model for modern green development, consistent with the environmental imperative of our time. The combination of scale and diverse deployment of green technology will demonstrate the viability of green new deal concepts for central Harlem and other communities throughout the city.

An energy district is a network of integrated systems that provide heating, cooling and electricity from clean energy. Synergies between the systems result in much less total energy use than if the buildings were serviced individually. An energy district is highly efficient - it uses natural energy flows, recovers and re-purposes energy.

We are developing a high-performance energy system based on geothermal technology. Throughout the design process additional green energy technologies can be integrated with infrastructure, including:
The highly efficient system for the One45 site alone -even without a broader district system provides a broad set of community benefits
