Flexible Research Space:

The base building will be constructed of durable long life materials including state-of-the-art sustainable technologies including fiber optics, renewable energy, water conservation, and day lighting. The building should have enough flexibility to change uses over time. Space modules will be easily configured to allow research initiatives to plug in and plug out as funding allows. Technology should be easily upgraded.

To help defray expenses and increase research collaboration, some of the space will be leased to industry partners who are interested in developing environmental products or services suitable for the region. The modular spaces will be leased to research initiatives on a short and long term basis with rents used to defray the operating costs of the center.
