The Business Case for building a Passive House

​

Climate Change has not only driven a moral imperative among business owners, homeowners, and Governments across the world. It has also stimulated a bottom-line approach to building.

​

This bottom-line approach has placed emphasis on social, economical, and environmental impacts buildings have on our communities today.

​

Passive House represents the lowest cost of ownership when one considers the costs of a mortgage, energy and maintenance costs.

"Passive house (German: Passivhaus) is a rigorous, voluntary standard for energy efficiency in a building, which reduces the buildings ecological footprint. It results in ultra-low energy buildings that require little energy for space heating or cooling."
