Ridgeway Science & Tech Creates Net Zero, All Electric Building

Ridgeway Science & Tech, an office and lab space in Boulder, will be Colorado's first net-zero carbon, all-electric life sciences building and technology campus.

The building will feature onsite geothermal exchange, onsite and offsite solar panels and an insulated and airtight envelope. The project is designed to meet the highest Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) standards, including LEED Platinum, WELL Gold, Wired Score Gold, and Zero Energy Certifications. 

The project was recently approved by the City of Boulder. The 112,000-square-foot project is set to break ground in 2024 and construction will be completed in 2026.

Ridgeway Science & Tech will be equipped with lab spaces that meet Bio Safety Level 1, 2, and 3 requirements. The project will also feature amenities such as an indoor bike room with electric bike charging stations and electric charging stations.

The project will be developed by real estate investment firm Conscience Bay Company.

"Boulder is home to 17 federally funded labs. In addition to providing an excellent quality of life, we're surrounded by top-tier academic and research institutions, enjoy pro-innovation business policies, are home to the highest percentage of advanced degree holders, and the second-highest density of Bioengineers and Biomedical Engineers in the nation – all of which have contributed to outsized demand for high-performance office and lab space," said Daniel Aizenman, Director of Development and Design at CBC in a statement. "We saw an opportunity with Ridgeway Science & Tech to create a flexible, state-of-the-art office and lab campus equipped to support breakthroughs across a variety of fields – from life sciences, biotech, medical device research and production to robotics, aerospace, and technology."
