Entirely powering the projects developed by Forte Partners with electricity from renewable sources adds to other sustainable features that the buildings in the company's portfolio have in common, such as biophilic design, intelligent ventilation systems, intelligent LED lighting systems, charging stations for electric vehicles and interactive building management systems.
„We are integrating during the concept phase and we are implementing during the construction phase all the elements of sustainability and energy efficiency, so that the use of our office buildings is environmentally friendly and creates a healthy and safe working environment.”,said Stephen Burke, Construction Director of Forte Partners. „Green electricity, 100% from renewable sources, used even on the construction site of the second phase of the U•Center project, confirms our commitment to healthy real estate development, which focuses on the well-being of people, both employees of tenant companies and members of local communities.”
