How will the GreenGrid® system help my building in terms of energy efficiency and insulation?
Due to their superior insulating properties, green roofs have consistently been proven to reduce heating and cooling costs by up to 25% and 50%, respectively, for the floor directly below the roof. Rooftop surface temperatures impact not only the temperatures within the building, but also the amount of energy necessary to heat and cool the building to the desired temperatures. Plants transform heat and soil moisture into humidity, naturally cooling the building. Conversely, in a cool climate, the green roof provides added insulation against heat loss through the building’s roof.
