by ArabianBusiness.com staff writer  on Saturday, 24 November 2007

Energy Management Services (EMS) has won a contract from Emirates Post to implement green building solutions at its existing offices and those currently under construction.

The move will make Emirates Post the first federal corporation to commence the process of achieving LEED certification, by adhering to the international rating system and standards for environmentally sustainable construction.

EMS will evaluate Emirates Post's new and existing offices through an Energy Efficient Architecture (EEA) analysis, aimed at reducing energy usage and lowering costs.

EMS solutions are designed to improve air and water quality, reduce waste streams, conserve natural resources and promote energy efficiency.
