A first Windward Green Expo is planned for Saturday at the Koolau Ballrooms and Conference Center in Kaneohe, offering a series of workshops and more than a dozen vendors and exhibitors to help the public understand sustainable building practices that they can apply to their own projects, as well as what it really means – and costs – to make a home green.<\/p>\n

The event runs from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and has the official title “Windward High Performance Building Green Expo and Workshop.” Admission to the expo is free, but the six mini-workshops have a fee of $20 in advance (online by Saturday) or $25 at the door. A buffet lunch is provided to each paid registrant. To sign up, call Roseann Barton at 263-8891 or go to wgbexpo.com.<\/p>\n

The inaugural event is hosted by Windward lawmakers state Sen. Pohai Ryan and Rep. Cynthia Thielen in collaboration with the American Society of Interior Designers.<\/p>\n

The workshop series includes Alternative Energy by Gregg Murphy of RevoluSun; LEED Certification by Rhonda Goyke of Green Sand; Green Building Standards NGBS by Peter Stone of Pohaku Consulting; Green Through Design by Tiare Noelani Cowan of Archipelago Hawaii; The Guts of a Green Home by Doug Pierce of Mokulua High Performance Builders; and Green Space Solutions by Kimo Steinwascher of KR Wall Garden Design.<\/p>\n

Vendors in the ballroom lobby will be Kaneohe Ranch, Cool Roof, Pacific Business News, Island Cooling, Pratt & Lambert, First Hawaiian Bank, Hawaii Skylights & Solar Fans, Lighting Concepts and Hui o Ko’olaupoko.<\/p>\n

NGBS stands for National Green Building Standard; LEED is Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – two key building programs that will be discussed in full at the expo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
