Emory University has three projects under construction targeted to meet LEED standards: an interdisciplinary science building, Science 2000 Phase Two; the Winship Cancer Institute; and the Whitehead Biomedical Research Building.  In the Winship building and the 325,000-sf Whitehead building, enthalpy heat wheel devices are expected to pay for themselves through reduced energy costs in five to seven years. Approximately $326,000 of the Winship building's $60 million price tag is LEEDs related, a percentage expected to prevail in the other buildings. The building is scheduled for completion in 2003.
