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.
Buildings are appraised on how much it costs to operate, and how they are constructed. Wood frames have the worst value; concrete has the highest; beyond that its about how much it costs to operate the building long term.
At niche our 0 emission technology allows us to reduce long term operating costs substantially (ie more than 25% when compared to boiler heated buildings) thus increasing the value of our projects by %1.5-%2. This might seem small, but a 2% increase in value can represent $2million for 120 units.
At niche, using geothermal, solar PV and Solar heating, we can achieve 0 emission in our buildings. We will always need power, but we no longer need gas to operate buildings, including the parkades.
When we stop burning gas for heating or cooling, it will be a large step forward for society to achieve 0 emissions. Niche is helping to take that first step forward into a new era.
Hugging trees does not make money, not burning gas saves trees, money and the planet. Lets choose the reasonable path of not burning gas, save money as a society, and let the tree planters hug the trees.
