Establishing a net zero energy status and reduced carbon footprint are intentional measures the company made as the industry continues to trend towards net zero and sustainable living. Situated on 4.2 acres, the development is projected to be an all-electric building and will feature 328 apartment units, more than 13,000 square feet of ground floor retail, a roof-level lounge and outdoor terrace. By using a mix of onsite renewable energy, electrification and deep efficiency measures it will generate as much renewable power as it uses.
“For us, a development like this is looking at how a project serves the community. How we build the buildings, how it serves the residents, the retail tenants, the office space, and ultimately, how it all forms together.”
Stephen Hohenrieder, CEO and Founder of Grounded Capital Partners

According to the EPA, Net Zero means consuming only as much energy as is produced, achieving a sustainable balance between water availability and demand, and eliminating solid waste sent to landfills. There are a few strategies, approaches that can be use to achieve. According to the developer, some of the approaches the development will leverage through the design to achieve net-zero energy operation includes:
- Reflective roofing
- Reduced air leakage
- Energy Star appliances
- High performing HVAC systems
- Smart thermostats and technology

“Supporting quality of life initiatives helps build stronger communities that allow for more people to prosper, and when that happens, everyone wins. This partnership will make a significant positive impact on the community with Pinnacle’s brand of distinctive service and effective advice.”
Jason Baldwin, Pinnacle Financial Partners Regional President for Huntsville.
