I wasn't sure where to put this since there are few concrete plans yet, but move it if you feel necessary...
Emera has expressed interest in construction of a new and "green" office development. By the sounds of it, this will almost certainly be a LEED building.

PROJECT OBJECTIVE
Emera Incorporated and its affiliates, including Nova Scotia Power Inc. (collectively “Emera”) current
corporate office lease expires in March 2011. Emera plans to secure and implement a new arrangement
for corporate office facilities located within the Halifax Regional Municipality. Emera seeks to implement a
new arrangement for corporate office facilities which is based on sustainable design principles, and which
responds to the climate change issues and minimizes life cycle costs. The office facilities will be
designed, constructed and operated in such a way as to achieve a low carbon foot print and inspire
environmental stewardship. This document is the first step in the plan/process to secure a new corporate
office facilities arrangement.
This Request for Expressions of Interest & Qualifications (RFEIQ) seeks to identify and pre-qualify
potential facilities partner Candidates that have sufficient capacity (financial, expertise including
engineering, design and construction and related experience) to propose a concept that they consider to
be the best solution for Emera’s needs as described in this RFEIQ.
The facilities partner may be required to undertake any or all stages of the new facilities arrangements
including but not limited to; design, engineering, procurement, construction, financing and potentially
owning the facilities.
Successful Candidates will be selected for a subsequent more detailed and rigorous RFP process.
