With a wave of sustainability initiatives sweeping the region in recent years, green construction is now standard for many of today's top contractors. But just as overall construction revenue declined in 2010 as the prolonged economic slump continued, green building revenue also declined.
Total revenue last year at the 40 largest green contractors in Texas and Louisiana combined came in at $4.4 billion. In the previous year, the top 40 green firms in Texas alone reported nearly $4.4 billion in revenue.
