2011-04-14

SAN DIEGO, CA, April 14, 2011 (Press-News.org) Construction Digital, the top digital media source for global construction news and information, offers an inside look at TD Bank's net-zero energy store in Florida. TD Bank is seeking to become as green as its logo by building branches, or stores, that abide by the latest innovations in green building. TD Bank has set the bar for environmental sustainability in banking, becoming the largest US-based bank to become carbon neutral.

With the ability to generate over 100,000 kWh of electricity annually, the facility will take advantage of Florida's legendary sunshine and generate energy through ground-mounted solar panels. Net-zero energy buildings (NZEB) produce as much energy as they consume. NZEB facilities take environmental sustainability to the next level and TD Bank's NZEB store in Florida is the first bank of its kind.

"We will continue to provide WOW! service to the area, but now we're doing it in a very green and environmentally friendly way," said Brandon Williams, senior vice president retail, TD Bank in a statement in April 2010.

POF is a loss of ovarian function occurring at too young an age to be considered natural, although premature, menopause. Not only will these young women potentially lose their reproductive capabilities, but they ...
