Brilliant to attend the opening of the Fletcher Living #LowCO project with @ChrisPenknz and other dignitaries. Over their lifetimes these homes will emit 7x less CO2 than the avg NZ new build, which is the reduction we need to comply with our Paris Agreement commitments

Dunedin social housing tenants can expect 90% lower power bills, thanks to clever passive design

Super energy-efficient housing isn't just for the wealthy: These council units have way above code levels of insulation, just as a start.

Great to see momentum is gathering on multi-occupancy Passive House projects - with @ArchitypeNZ leading the way. Sadly a few multi-unit PH projects we've designed haven't gone ahead, we're keen for more that do go ahead! #passivehouse

What the Romans can teach us about how we build our homes today. Enjoyed this chat with @NewsroomNZ on carbon https://t.co/Yj2dn1MR02
@NZGBC #carbon Emissions from the average new home are +5 x our carbon budget. Great work fletcher living & neocrete on how to reduce emissions

To show what’s possible, we’re building a new 3-bedroom detached home at Waiata Shores that could change the way New Zealand homes are constructed in the future.

It is essential for our power grid that we stop building crappy houses with huge heating systems. Passive House is brilliant at reducing peak winter loads.

Power generation failed to keep demand across New Zealand, leading to a "grid emergency" and mass power outages across the North Island.

Super stoked to have received #passivehouse certification for both buildings at the High Street Cohousing Project in Dunedin. This is New Zealand’s first certified multi unit housing project. Big thanks to @@eHausUneed1 builders and energy consultants on this landmark project!

Another solid reason to build to the #passivehouse standard. Future proofing buildings against a future of escalating electricity prices. “The trend is very much going to be prices increasing,”
