The mission of Howland Green Homes Ltd. is to build beyond net-zero. The net-zero energy or zero energy standard describes a building’s ability to self-generate energy by renewable, onsite means which offset any energy it consumes. This ambition objective was achieved Markham, Ontario, Canada where the company developed the Howland Green Business Centre, a commercial building that will produce more energy than it will consume. Howland Green is setting the bar high for building development, not only with regards to ensuring a clean ecological footprint but also in terms of economic and energy efficiency.

Dave de Sylva Eng., President of Howland Green Homes, was set on environmentally-conscious development that goes beyond current building codes.
