The 5th Annual Flex Your Power Awards

Chartwell School

Best Overall Award Winner

Chartwell School

When the Chartwell School designed their new campus building in Seaside, they made sure that it was a model of energy efficiency. This high performance learning environment features extensive use of daylighting, a wide array of efficient task lighting in classrooms, a PV system, high performance window glazing, natural ventilation, a highly insulated envelope and state-of-the-art water conservation technology. Together, the features make the building a "net zero" electricity user and the first LEED Platinum school in the U.S.
