The Net-Zero Grocery Store
This project included an aggressive goal of reducing 1,500-2,000 metric tons of greenhouse gases per year.
Participation in this ground-breaking design was just one in a series of firsts for JV partner s2e Technologies. In October 2018 construction wrapped up on a 40,000-square-foot store located in Stouffville, Ontario. The project incorporated many sustainability practices including an efficient building envelope and lighting, and innovative heat recovery. Solar power was harnessed through a microgrid with solar panels installed on the rooftop, facade and parking canopy.
The Sustainable Energy Platforms offering – involving the full lifecyle of Design, Build, Finance, Operate and Maintain is a natural fit for businesses like this, where energy forms an important part of operating costs.
