National Energy Security Center

The National Energy Security Center was constructed as the corporate headquarters for Pro2Serve. Pro2Serve’s real estate developer, Igawaga, Inc., brought in Merit Construction to build the three-story, 105,000-square-foot office complex was first building in the new Science and Technology Park at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

The L-shaped concrete and steel structure features masonry veneer on micropile foundations, a three-story atrium entrance and two wings of office space. In addition, the building has access control and designated limited-access areas to increase security and prevent unauthorized entry onto the site.

Some of the building’s “green” features include a white TPO roof that is reflective and energy efficient, as well as native landscaping, natural daylighting, low-E glass and extra insulation to reduce the amount of heat lost in cold weather.
