Church, the new Austin Ridge Church is one of the
largest and fastest-growing congregations in the central

and a large and dynamic building program is well underway
on the church campus.
Alpaca Energy Solutions has been an integral
part of design and construction supervision for this
congregation's MEP needs and continues with ongoing
work on various buildings in the expanding complex.
Some of the facilites under development
in the master plan for this church center are: a new
3,500 seat main Worship Auditorium to replace the
current sanctuary built ten years ago, the new high-school
and junior high activity centers, new administration/offices
center with cafe, a rebuild
of the existing classroom center, and expansion of
park-
ing and various site improvements for the 2,700+ member

Located
in the Barton Creek area, west of Austin, this 1,500-seat

The building utilizes chilled and hot water
for the HVAC systems, with special consideration for
sound attenuation due to the high level audio/visual
use in the auditorium. The electrical system is designed
to support the standard lighting and power systems,
along with the special lighting requirements. The construction
