When complete in mid-2021, the 187,000-square-foot property will only provide net-zero operations through an integrated renewable energy strategy. Apex will be taking 84,000 square feet\u2014equal to the building\u2019s top three floors\u2014as its corporate headquarters. Apex was represented by John Pritzlaff, senior vice president at Cushman &amp; Wakefield | Thalhimer,<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of the project\u2019s energy operations will be its 875 roof- and canopy-mounted solar panels, which will produce an estimated 364 megawatt-hours. That will offset the property\u2019s energy consumption and produce net-zero operations.<\/p>\n<p>Rising to eight stories, the building, which broke ground last month, will have the distinction of being the tallest timber structure in Virginia. Also of note is the property\u2019s sustainably harvested mass timber structure. Cross-laminated timber, known for its high-efficiency strength and fire resistance, will provide the structural material.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004370503\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004370503\" data-attachment-id=\"1004370503\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/green-energy-powers-new-hq-comes-clean\/apex-timber-hq_interior-rendering\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2019\/11\/Apex-timber-HQ_interior-rendering.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"580,508\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Apex timber HQ_interior rendering\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Interior view of Virginia&#8217;s tallest timber buiding.
