Low energy consumption and a reduction in emissions were already key performance indicators during the planning and construction of the MAIN TOWER. The MAIN TOWER has an excellent environmental record and was the first existing high-rise building in Germany to be awarded a US LEED Gold certification in 2011. In 2016, thanks to the systematic further development of the overall energy technology system and by using the latest building technology, the building achieved the next level: US LEED Platinum certification. The last regular recertification of the MAIN TOWER took place in 2021, after which the MAIN TOWER was again awarded the LEED Gold label.The MAIN TOWER focuses on sustainable solutions down to the last detail. For example, intelligent systems in the modern high-performance heating and cooling ceiling save around 30% in energy consumption compared to conventional designs. Heating and cooling systems can be regulated locally by means of individual room and zone controls. This means that you do not have to sacrifice well-being and comfort.
