Why settle for a 7-star home, when you can also be Net Zero
We believe in offering more than just energy efficiency. Why settle for a 7-star home when you can enjoy the benefits of a net zero home designed for comfort, sustainability, and savings?
What does Net Zero mean?
In simple terms, a net zero home is designed to use energy efficiently, with features such as energy-saving appliances and solar panels that generate clean energy from the sun, keeping energy use low and sustainable.
Our standard plans, facades, and all electric inclusions for all our designs with solar panels have achieved a score of 100+ according to the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) Whole of Home scale, based on the energy consumption of an average household.
The NatHERS Whole of Home rating is a scale from 0 to 100 where 100 is a net zero energy value home. A score of 100+ indicates a home generates more energy than it uses.
From efficient appliances to solar panels, our homes also meet every aspect of energy efficiency set by the National Construction Code, bringing your household one step closer to energy independence.
“Our homes don’t just save energy; they create it … which is better for the planet and better for your power bills.” Alex Raleigh, General Manager Plantation Homes
