With a projected Energy Use Intensity (EUI) of 18.1, Buckley Elementary School was a Renovated as New project designed to be the State of Connecticut’s first Net Zero Energy public school. The design focused on providing a tight envelope, high-performing building systems, and renewables such as photovoltaics and a geothermal wellfield. The project required 55,000 sq. ft. of renovation and a 9,000 sq. ft. expansion to allow additional classrooms and specialized spaces for special education, art, music, and STEM. Buckley Elementary School will accommodate 400 students in grades K-4.

The design creates a prominent main entrance featuring a solar flower as a learning opportunity and a real-time energy dashboard highlighting the school’s Zero Net Energy goal. The design takes advantage of the school’s existing energy-efficient features like the north-south facing windows and open space to create a geothermal well field along with innovative technologies like bipolar ionization.
