Energy efficiency is vital in affordable housing as it reduces energy costs, improves living conditions, and supports environmental sustainability. In Manitoba’s cold climate, where affordable housing faces unique challenges like high heating demands and aging infrastructure, implementing energy-saving solutions is critical for lowering utility bills, enhancing tenant comfort and safety, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Considering energy efficiency in your vision not only makes housing more affordable but also helps build resilient, sustainable communities in Manitoba.
At MNPHA, our Energy Efficiency Team is committed to helping housing providers maximize energy efficiency in their projects.
