Exelon executives and Maryland leaders joined on Friday in celebrating the opening of the company’s new building at Harbor Point, one of the more than 200 economic, community and environmental commitments Exelon made as part of its 2012 merger with Constellation.
Exelon’s interior build-out was designed to meet LEED Platinum standards, the highest ranking in Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. Once LEED certification is received in early 2017, the building will be the largest LEED Platinum project in the mid-Atlantic and Maryland.
The building features a 49.4 kilowatt rooftop solar PV system that will produce 62,662 kilowatt hours of renewable energy annually.
The building uses 40 percent less water and 50 percent less energy than Exelon’s current Baltimore location. Approximately 60 percent of construction materials were harvested or made within 500 miles of Baltimore, and reclaimed timbers from vacant Baltimore City row homes were used in the columns on the trading floor. The building also will have 32 electric vehicle charging stations and more than 120 bike spaces.
