Energy Performance
The use of efficient mechanical systems, including heat pumps, combined with enhanced airtightness and building-envelope insulation, can reduce heating consumption by over 75% and annual cooling consumption by 30%.
Sustainable Innovations
An ambitious industrial ecopark targeting carbon neutrality
More than 1.6 million sq. ft. targeting Zero-Carbon Building (ZCB) Certification, Design and Performance.
Combining energy efficiency, environmental protection and mixed uses
Renewable energy production
With on-site renewable energy production, this project is a resilient ecopark. A total of 750 solar panels installed across the site will generate 5% of the energy consumed by the buildings.
Water-resource optimization
The site employs a comprehensive strategy to reduce potable water use both inside and outside the buildings. Rainwater is collected, stored, and reused to supply 50% of the water needed for plumbing fixtures.
Development of a carbon strategy
Aiming for the highest level of carbon certification, this unique site is innovating by exceeding the thresholds required for Zero-Carbon Building, Design, and Performance. The site will achieve a zero-carbon footprint by demonstrating that its buildings have had no climate impact over a full year of operation. By meeting stringent standards for embodied carbon in building materials and energy efficiency, and by offsetting any remaining GHG emissions, the site will attain carbon neutrality.
