Performance of the Norris Cotton Federal Office Building for the First 3 Years of Operation
The Norris Cotton Federal Office Building is located in Manchester, New Hampshire, and was designed to demonstrate a number of energy saving concepts. Some of the major energy conserving features of the building are the use of solar collectors; heavy masonry construction with exterior insulation; small overall window area; heat recovery from heat pumps, chillers, a natural gas-powered engine/generator, and the ventilation system; modular boilers; thermal storage tanks; and a variety of energy conserving lighting systems.
