Living

A zero-emission and zero-energy home combines advanced engineering and superior building systems with energy efficiency, on-site solar panels and geothermal technology to produce a better home. It is also these innovations that make zero-energy homes inherently more durable, comfortable, quiet, sustainable and most importantly, affordable.

By definition, zero-energy home does not emit any carbon emissions within the heating, cooling and hot water systems. A zero-energy home is a building with zero net consumption, meaning the total amount of energy used by the building on an annual basis is roughly equal to the amount of renewable energy created on location.

Emission

Projects

This is our global challenge. No one would care what you drive if it didn’t pollute. No one would care what you live in if it didn’t pollute. We care about what we live in, what we drive and how we affect the planet around us. Everyone wants clean air, water and earth, but is everyone prepared to change to make it happen? - Niche is.

At Niche, we are designing our projects to 0 emission today, so our kids tomorrow have a chance at clean air, water and earth.

The irony? Its CHEAPER for everyone to go 0 emission than to keep doing the same thing over and over. If we can put enough insulation, vapour barrier and air barriers into buildings to remove the need for heating or cooling, then we will not be spending money on utility bills. When you don’t spend money on gas or power, it increases the value of your property and makes it affordable long term.
