The goal of this two-year project is to demonstrate the energy efficiency and savings in operating costs that can be achieved in a pre-cast midrise affordable housing project and disseminate relevant information that would encourage and assist others in utilizing a similar approach in the development of affordable housing projects of this nature.
This grant provides an opportunity to capture the outcomes from a YWCA affordable housing project in Hamilton. The building is designed according to Passive House Design principles in order to achieve an extremely high level of energy efficiency and sustainability while supporting the needs of people living and working in the building.
