Why Rental?

Net Zero Ready

520 Normandy meets the highest level of the BC Energy Step Code—an innovative regulatory policy used to incentivize the level of energy efficiency in new construction—going above and beyond current requirements.

While the lower steps of the code bridge current construction and design practices with those needed to achieve the highest steps, each step moves closer to Net Zero Ready Buildings—the province-wide standard by 2032. By committing to build to Step Code 4 before it is required, we are setting a new standard and establishing capacity among our in-house construction team, local trades, suppliers and consultants.

Common Benefits

Each Net Zero Ready home is so energy efficient that it is able to offset the energy it uses by generating renewable energy on site from sources such as wind and solar.

Step 4 buildings also improve residents' health and comfort—excellent ventilation and temperature management are critical components to a higher quality of living.

Step 4 buildings consume, on average, over 1,000 megawatt hours less than Step 3 buildings over their lifespan. Step 3 buildings are 20% more efficient, while Step 4 are 40% more efficient.
