35 Existing building improvements The Common Support Building at INLs Advanced Test Reactor Complex earned LEED Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification in March 2011. INL also installed four cool roofs to reflect sunlight and lessen cooling costs. The new roofing meets the secretary of energys requirements for cool roofs and eliminates more than 400000 of deferred maintenance. Energy Savings Performance An Energy Savings Performance Contract brought 35-million worth of energy-saving infrastructure improvements to the labs Materials Fuels Complex. The complex transitioned from fuel oil to electricity for steam heating and replaced more than 6000 outdated lighting fixtures. The project will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 12 million pounds annually. Facility upgrades include energy-efficient lighting heating systems and building controls. New INL facilities are using xeriscaping to save water and associated landscape maintenance expenses. U.S. Deputy Secretary Daniel Poneman right recognized INLs energy management efforts in November 2011.
