On June 18, 2025, Ameresco, Inc. announced a significant new project with the U.S. Army’s Detroit Arsenal in Warren, Michigan. This project is among the first within the Department of Defense to demonstrate the potential of 3D printing for large-scale energy efficiency upgrades.
As part of the Department of Defense’s Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP), Ameresco, in collaboration with Branch Technology and NREL, will design and install a custom-made, energy-efficient envelope over cladding system using Branch Technology's Cellular Fabrication (C-Fab®) process.
The project covers approximately 6,250 square feet of Detroit Arsenal’s building envelope and is expected to improve energy efficiency by 50%, resulting in reduced energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions. A 300-square-foot mockup installation at NREL's research facility will evaluate energy savings and cost-effectiveness.
