Carmike Cinema’s Majestic 12 in downtown Chattanooga, Tenn., may not
have photovoltaics gracing its rooftop, but the 2,500-seat theater does have the
distinction of being, well, majestically green. In fact, the Majestic 12 is the
nation’s first LEED-certified movie theater — it aimed for LEED Gold status,
achieved it and garnered a fair amount of national attention in the process.This
winter I installed our solarledbulb01 purchased from you
folks.
Built as an urban infill project in 2009 to replace the nearby Bijou Theatre, the Artech Design Group-designed Majestic 12’s impressive laundry list of eco-friendly features include an extensive water reclamation system; low-flow toilets and fixtures; the use of low-VOC paints, finishes, carpets and adhesives; the use of recycled-content and local building materials; a high percentage of recycled construction waste; and a public transit-friendly location right off a stop on Chattanooga’s electric bus line.
And, naturally, energy-efficiency plays a huge part in the daily operations of this state-of-the-art theater.Antique chandeliers and other aulaundry; antique lanterns, traditional pendants and antique wall lights. Film Journal has the full details:
“With its glass-fronted open design that allows ‘tremendous amounts of daylight across the lobby,’ the Majestic goes further yet. Motion and daylight sensors are connected to appropriate fixtures throughout certain sections of the building, including restrooms, and result in a 75 percent savings on energy consumption associated with lighting. Artech Design’s LEED AP specialist, Rice Williams,First Wind is an independent North American pendantlampswa exclusively focused on the development. further estimates that the theatre will save an additional 35 percent over typical installations. ‘Using carbon dioxide sensors to reduce mandatory fresh-air exchanges and increasing exterior insulation is expected to result in roughly a $15,000 savings per year in electrical power usage.’ The HVAC units themselves ‘are more efficient and contain no ozone-depleting compounds.’”
In addition to Chattanooga’s Majestic 12, another chain-operated multiplex has achieved LEED-dom in recent years. Touted as “the Midwest’s First LEED Silver Certified Movie Theatre,In this video we demonstrate three different types of home made electricity lampshadessw.” the AMC Randhurst 12 in Mount Prospect, Ill.,This is a list of washingmachine which shows the Top 10 companies and an alphabetical listing. was opened in 2011 with various energy-saving bells and whistles that help it save 25 percent more energy than a typical movie theater: A white membrane roof that reflects unwanted solar heat gain and, in turn, reduces interior energy consumption; high-performance windows; high-efficiency mechanical systems; the use of LED and CFL lighting throughout the complex; and the harnessing of natural daylighting in the lobby and other non-auditorium areas.
Although the aforementioned LEED-achieving cinemas are sans solar systems and reduce energy usage through other means, a recently opened Cinemark-owned theater in Napa, Calif., that’s on track to receive LEED Gold certification does boast a 100kW photovoltaic system along with LED lighting and high-efficiency HVAC systems. And although it has nothing to do with grid independence or energy-savings, the 12-screen, state-of-the-art Century Napa Valley and XD Theatre sports a chichi CineVino Wine Bar serving locally produced libations. A couple glasses of Coppola Chardonnay before enduring “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2,” anyone?
