OUR FUTURE IS NET ZERO

 

This is the start of a new era for Arthur Erickson Place. It is where timeless architecture meets forward-thinking design – reimagined for a sustainable future. That future begins now. Our future is here.

 

Arthur Erickson Place is proud to be Zero Carbon Building – Performance certified from the Canada Green Building Council (CAGBC).

Achieving ZCB Performance certification demonstrates the building’s energy efficiency and the investment its co-owners have made to minimize carbon emissions from its operations. The three-year innovative decarbonization process, which began in 2022, involved an innovative retrofit which upon completion in 2025, will reduce its carbon emissions by 97 percent before purchasing any carbon credits.

Arthur Erickson Place’s new sustainable mechanical upgrades and features include optimized HVAC controls as well as new electric boilers, heat pumps, air handling units, a rooftop beehive installation to promote biodiversity and a spacious outdoor plaza. The achievement demonstrates the commitment by the building’s owners to create pathways to a net-zero future while creating a safe and healthy work environment for their tenants.

This transformation shows what’s possible when you’re committed to leading the way in environmentally conscious building practices.

It’s proof that a deep carbon retrofit of an historic building is achievable. It’s the right thing to do for our tenants, investors and stakeholders. And it’s how we can do our part to create a more sustainable future for everyone.

Our future is clear – 97% reduction in carbon emissions by 2025.

Our future is resilient – 40% reduction in energy consumption.

Our future is sustainable – Our efforts will remove the equivalent of nearly 140 gas-powered cars from the road each year.

Modern. Innovative. Forward-thinking. This is what Arthur Erickson Place has always been. Ahead of our time. Looking to the future.

 

Our future is now. Our future is net zero.
