Hot off the press! The final report on Low Carbon Solutions for Multi-Unit Residential Buildings is now public. Evoke Buildings Engineering partnered with Building Enclosure Labs Inc. (BELi) for this study and collaborated with BC Housing. This publication focuses on building envelope design guidance for reducing carbon emissions associated with new and existing MURBs. However, there are tons of valuable insights related to both embodied carbon and operational emissions that we are thrilled to share. Many of you have likely heard me talking about this for some time. Now is the time to check it out! Feel free to engage with us with any questions or comments.
