Improved Energy Performance
More than 30 percent of a building’s energy goes out the window, literally. Not with SageGlass. It reduces cooling loads in buildings by 20 percent, HVAC requirements by 25 percent, and lighting energy costs by up to 60 percent.
Although double-pane glazing is our most popular product, for clients who want added insulation and energy savings, SageGlass triple-pane glazing is the most energy-efficient building-glass solution available today. It provides a 16 percent energy improvement over state-of-the-art triple-pane low-e glass, and a 50 percent improvement over single-pane glazing.
In fact, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) says that if all buildings used products like SageGlass, we could save about 5 percent of the nation’s total energy budget each year. That’s like saving more than 160 gigawatts of electricity from fossil fuel-burning plants.
