Volkswagen has taken its leading design and technology expertise and used it to build its highly energy efficient Chattanooga production plant, recently acknowledged as the first auto plant to receive the top environmental award from the U.S. Green Building Council. Not only does the plant same 50 million gallons of water over 10 years, using power from a local hydroelectric dam combined with insulation of its walls, the plant will save 720,000 kilowatts on power per year.
