• High efficiency lighting systems that reduce lighting energy consumption
• Occupancy sensors to power off light in unoccupied areas
• HVAC recovery systems to pre-cool outside air
• Solar and tankless water heaters to heat water and reduce energy consumption
• Water conserving fixtures to reduce building water consumption
• Rainwater collection systems to collect and recycle storm water
• Florida-friendly, native plant landscaping adhering to Florida Yards program standards that reduce water consumption
