Construction sector welcomes B.C. climate plan as
good for business.
“The Province is investing in training for our trades workers and professionals, and in new incentives to upgrade our homes and businesses to make them less polluting. The plan also creates an energy rating requirement to ensure that everyone investing in real estate, whether buying a home or leasing an office, has information on building energy performance whilst weighing their options. Transparency will be a key driver of innovation for the sector.”

Metric Modular’s Passive House six-plex saves time and money for Yale First Nation
"The buildings were designed to maintain the feeling of community while also allowing each tenant to have a private outdoor space[...] The building was strategically placed on the property to take advantage of solar gains and area views. Because of the strict Passive House standards, monthly energy bills for the Yale First Nation went from $250 to less than $20. The continued savings will have a lasting impact to the economy of this community." bit.ly/2BPy3Fc

Metric Modular’s Passive House six-plex saves time and money for Yale First Nation
bdcnetwork.com
Metric Modular was tasked with providing desperately needed housing for Yale First Nation in Yale, British Columbia, Canada. The project needed to be able to combat the cold, wet climate, increase energy savings, and accommodate smaller families."In extremely cold climates, the Passive House paradigm of heating the fresh air supply changes slightly. While the overall annual energy goals for a Passive House can easily be met, the extremely cold peak winter temperatures call for a small additional heat source."
"At the Passive House in the Woods, electric in-floor heating mats with local room-air thermostats were installed to provide the 3 kW or 10 kBtu required for the job. That compares to the energy draw of two hair-dryers to heat the entire home on the coldest day of the year. There is not a boiler, or furnace in this house." testudio.com/projects/passive-house-in-the-woods/
