Energy Audit
VBFA’s energy audits help identify areas for energy efficiency improvements in buildings. By analyzing energy usage data, we offer insights into energy-saving opportunities, upgrade options, and new strategies. Our audits deliver a detailed analysis of problem areas and recommendations for systems based on building occupant patterns.
LEED Design
VBFA’s sustainability team specializes in LEED construction and documentation. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is a green building rating system that provides a framework for constructing healthy, efficient, and cost-effective buildings. We help achieve LEED certification, a globally recognized symbol of sustainability, offering environmental, social, and governance benefits.
Net Zero
VBFA excels in designing Net Zero buildings, which aim to minimize energy consumption through efficient design and renewable energy integration. Net Zero buildings can achieve significant sustainability goals, with energy savings of 50% to 70% compared to traditionally built structures. Our team is dedicated to helping clients achieve Net Zero goals, contributing to a greener and more sustainable future.

“We are often saddened and shocked by the devastation of uncontrolled fire spread through a built environment. Each day, my team and I envelop ourselves in the challenge of designing and coordinating fire protection systems, knowing that every single system adds an additional layer to reducing the risk of a costly fire and increases layers of life safety.”
– Sean Tingey, F.P.E., Licensed Fire Protection Engineer
