The most environmentally sustainable building in the world is the Change Initiative Building in Dubai, based on the LEED Commercial Interiors rating system. Bill Jolly, Director of MEP (Mechanical, electrical and plumbing design) and Sustainability at Ramboll, the lead engineer on the Change Initiative Building, said: “Our mechanical, electrical and plumbing design teams along with the fire engineering and sustainability teams embarked upon a mission to ensure that the most cost-effective sustainable solutions were offered to our valued client. In order to achieve these particular targets and to ensure the most cost-effective recommendations for the customer, the team evaluated each and every possible solution available.”
