Center for Emerging Building Technologies

Three programs. One mission. Empowering GSA to invest wisely in next-generation building technologies.

Green Proving Ground

GPG evaluates the real-world performance of emerging building technologies.

Pilot to Portfolio

P2P supports deployment of GPG-proven technologies for new construction, retrofits, and end-of-life replacements.

Applied Innovation Learning Lab

AILL develops a whole-building approach to sustainable operations.

Pilot Your Emerging Technology at GSA: FY24 GPG RFI

October 16, 2023: GSA, in collaboration with the DOE, has issued the FY24 Green Proving Ground RFI seeking technologies that support net-zero carbon buildings and contribute to a more efficient electric infrastructure. RFI is open until December 8, 11:59 PM ET.
Current & Past Participants Share the Benefits of GPG

October 2023: GPG program participants discuss their experience with GSA Administrator Robin Carnahan and share how GPG has helped them test their products at scale and reach new commercial customers.
Aerosolized Sealant Increases Airtightness, Reduces Heating & Cooling Demand

October 2023: Pressurizing the building envelope and then deploying the automated building envelope sealing technology can increase airtightness by more than 50% from an already airtight envelope.
Supplemental Treatment System Recovers & Purifies Blowdown

August 2023: Installing an alternate water treatment technology like the blowdown recovery system proved beneficial in saving water, reducing water use, and integrating with existing O&M contracts.
