The Grand Avenue Bus Depot, designed by DiDomenico + Partners, is the first "green" bus facility of its kind. It includes advanced sustainable features, including a 200 kW fuel cell and PV panels. The building is projected to save over 20% in regulated energy cost vs. the ASHRAE 90.1-1999 baseline, per NYS Executive Order 111. The project was performed when Viridian professionals were the Energy/Green/Commissioning group of another company. This group formed Viridian's nucleus in 2006.
