Innovative Electrical Design Engineer with over 10 years of ​experience in designing and managing electrical systems for ​commercial, residential, and industrial projects. Passionate ​about delivering high-quality, sustainable solutions.

I am Elias Haddad, a Professional Engineer (PE) and LEED Green Associate (LEED GA) with a Bachelor of ​Science in Electrical Engineering from the University of Kentucky. With over a decade of experience in ​electrical design, I specialize in creating efficient, reliable, and innovative electrical systems for a variety ​of building types, including commercial, residential, educational, and laboratories.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed and executed numerous projects, ensuring ​compliance with industry codes and standards and delivering solutions that meet client needs and ​exceed expectations. My expertise spans power distribution, lighting design, fire alarm systems, ​emergency systems and more. I am fluent in both English and Arabic, enabling me to effectively ​communicate and collaborate with diverse teams and clients.

I am committed to continuous improvement and sustainability, as evidenced by my involvement in LEED ​and net-zero projects. Whether working independently or as part of a multidisciplinary team, I bring a ​strong focus on quality, innovation, and client satisfaction to every project.

Projects Highlights

Leading the comprehensive electrical design of a 1.5 million SF, ​$1.3B mixed-use development, encompassing two underground ​garages, two high-rise office buildings, a 28-story residential building, ​and a 23-story JW Marriott Hotel and Condo building, while ​collaborating closely with project managers, architects, ownership, ​end user and engineers to ensure that the electrical systems align ​with client needs, designing and implementing electrical systems for ​various spaces, coordinating with multiple stakeholders, and ​meticulously overseeing the installation process to guarantee ​accuracy and compliance.

This low-carbon energy system and a central plant follows ​the net zero carbon objectives outlined in the university’s ​infrastructure masterplan (IMP). By completion, the Meadow ​Campus will be fully served by highly efficient energy ​infrastructure coupled with renewable electricity that will ​significantly reduce the university’s carbon footprint in ​alignment with its sustainability goals.

The TIGER CUB design is based on heat recovery chillers ​coupled with a vertical closed loop geo-exchange system ​that will consist of 500 geo-exchange boreholes 200 metres ​deep and large capacity thermal energy (heating and ​chilled water) storage.

Worked on the design and implementation of energy-efficient electrical ​systems, including a photovoltaic system (PV), for the NCR ​Headquarters in Midtown Atlanta, a LEED Core and Shell Platinum ​Certified building, collaborating closely with project managers, ​architects, and engineers to meet client needs and ensure compliance ​with LEED Platinum standards, coordinating with the construction team ​to guarantee accurate system installation, and integrating innovative ​site water and energy systems that achieved significant reductions in ​utility power consumption and potable water demand, including a 35% ​reduction in power consumption relative to an ASHRAE 90.1 Baseline ​and an 80% reduction in base building potable water demand through ​the harvesting, treatment, and reuse of groundwater and rainwater.

Engineered electrical systems for the expansion of tech ​square. An innovative two tower building that includes a ​combination office space, ground floor retail space, and ​levels of below-ground parking. Project is the first LEED ​Platinum (CS) speculative office tower and largest chilled ​beam installation in SE U.S.

Campus modernization project including a multi-building poultry research complex BSL-3Ag, BSL-3 and BSL-2 ​biocontainment labs, a 1,600-ton central utility plant, 4 MW paralleling emergency power supply system, a new ​medium voltage service and distribution system and overall campus site lighting replacement.255,000 square feet, ​$150M construction cost, Targeting LEED Certified

Project Fusion is the new headquarters for Norfolk Southern Corporation, ​one of the nation’s premier transportation companies. 750,000 square ​feet.

Designed and collaborated on the electrical systems for the Norfolk ​Southern Headquarters, a LEED Gold Certified headquarters campus in ​Midtown Atlanta featuring two high-rise buildings. The design included a ​network operations center NOC that is backed by an N+1 UPS, generator, ​and utility service system. Worked with multiple stakeholders, including ​architects, engineers, contractors, and subcontractors, to ensure the ​project's success while meeting the client's need for a highly critical ​headquarters.

Interface, a global leader in floor covering, is relocating its ​corporate headquarters to a circa 1950’s building in Midtown ​Atlanta. The building energy strategy is projected to decrease ​energy consumption by 70% relative to the existing condition and ​energy costs by 50% relative to a modern, code-compliant ​building. 40,000 square feet, LEED Platinum V4 and WELL Gold

Camp Southern Ground Lodge: Camp Southern Ground, Fayetteville, Georgia A summer camp lodging facility, a hotel-type property, and a rehabilitation ​environment ​for soldiers with PTSD. 25,000 square feet, LEED Gold

Interpretive Center: Gulf Shores, Alabama First Living Building in the Southeastern United States

The Interpretive Center is a hub of education and connection with nature, linking the public with the beauty that Gulf Shores offers and simultaneously ​fostering a deeper ​understanding of its ecology. From the very beginning, the goal was to make this center a living building that could achieve all seven ​Petals of the Living Building ​Challenge. Integral Group provided MEP, PV, and battery system design services as well as daylighting, energy, water, and ​indoor/outdoor comfort modeling services. ​1,500 square feet, LEED Platinum, Living Building Challenge, SITES Gold

22 West Edge: Charleston, SC, 8 story office building 150,000 square feet of class A office space with ground level retail. The building is intended for ​tenants focusing on ​research and development, laboratory space, and innovation.
