David W Griffin II is the owner and principal. He is trained in architecture and building science, with expertise in energy conservation for various building types.

Griffin EnerG Consulting delivers energy efficiency analyses to owners, developers, and design teams for various building types. Check out our portfolio and previous projects for examples.

Energy Code Compliance ensures that building designs meet the minimum energy efficiency standards set by local and national regulations. This is crucial for reducing energy consumption, lowering utility costs, and contributing to a more sustainable built environment. Our custom approach allows projects to balance energy efficiency with financial and operational costs.

By accurately analyzing the building’s heating and cooling loads, Griffin EnerG Consulting can often recommend smaller HVAC systems. This can lead to lower upfront equipment costs, reduced energy consumption, and improved system performance.

Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) evaluates the total cost of a building or system over its entire lifespan, including initial investment, energy consumption, maintenance, and replacement. This analysis helps clients make informed decisions that optimize long-term value and minimize overall expenses.

Achieving Zero Net Energy Building Certification means that a building produces as much renewable energy as it consumes on an annual basis. Griffin EnerG Consulting guides clients through the process of designing and verifying buildings to meet ZNE standards.

The firm and its team are actively involved in professional organizations and continuous learning to ensure the company provides clients with the most current and effective energy efficiency strategies.

Griffin EnerG Consulting offers a unique blend of architectural understanding and building science expertise, coupled with a strong commitment to client empowerment and sustainable building practices.
