Facilities of the Future: Sustainable Housing Tour

Join Carbon 613 for a unique opportunity to learn about two of Ottawa's most sustainable housing communities: Beaver Barracks, which was, in 2012, the largest residential geo-thermal system in Canada (and has several other community sustainability features) and a new 16-unit affordable passive house development on Arlington Ave. The Centretown Citizens Ottawa Corporation (CCOC) has a knack for building communities that are ahead of their time. Come learn from their experiences over the years in both building green and engaging tenants in these green buildings.

Highlights include:
*Q & A with some of Ottawa's leading experts in sustainable and affordable building practices
*Learning about green building projects in Ottawa, their successes and struggles
*Exploring passive house standards, geothermal energy, and district energy systems
*Learn about CCOC’s tenant engagement work to support 'green' building performance and tenant satisfaction

Location: Beaver Barracks, 464 Metcalfe Street
