This story has been literally years in the making. It’s been a quest to illuminate truth. It’s about “right-sizing” the electrical systems appropriate to actual electrical demand. As you may recall, this research (Mazzetti has been spearheading for years), is meant to illustrate the ACTUAL peak electrical demand when a hospital is stressed to the max... Queue a once-in-a-century pandemic.

Healthcare leaders are increasingly recognizing the responsibility of the industry to respond to this crisis. In the world of design, we say that “form follows function”...

The International Federation of Healthcare Engineering (IFHE), with support from the Association of Medical Facility Professionals (AMFP) and Mazzetti, has launched its first ever Global Healthcare Energy Awards. The awards aim to encourage healthcare facilities around the world to commit to a reduction in energy use that will ultimately lessen the entire global health system’s intensive carbon footprint, all through a simple energy tracking process.

Please join us in welcoming seasoned MEP engineer Stacey Lin, who joined Mazzetti as a Principal in San Francisco, CA. He brings 25+ years of experience, specializing in sustainable design.

ASHRAE Golden Gate Chapter Recognizes Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford with 1st Place Health Care Facilities Technology Chapter Award

We (Mazzetti) have a long-standing reputation for designing high-performing, highly sustainable healthcare facilities across the country. However, many people may not be fully aware of our similar work in  Aviation.

The silent operation of a hospital microgrid illustrates a paradigm shift. The rapid advancement of technology is forcing people to reevaluate the opportunities and, resultantly, regulations for how power is provided to critical facilities like hospitals.

We are helping to improve the quality of life for these communities and providing resilient energy sources (in the event of future natural disasters). These schools can be used as places of refuge so ensuring that they have electricity will be a huge benefit and could save lives.

It’s that time of year again--Spring Training, March Madness, and PDC Summit! We're serving up a a great line-up of sessions featuring timely info on energy procurement, hybrid OR's, and even LEAN techniques to reduce energy consumption. See more details...

We often mistake system-problems for people-problems. We assume people are lazy or difficult, when they are exhausted or uninformed. Consider what information they need, what motivates them, and what in their environment is working for or against them.

Designing a healing place now means understanding how a building affects its people and its environment. How did we partner with Perkins+Will to achieve optimal healing AND building performance?
