As the concern over climate change grows, so does the interest in energy efficient building and retrofitting.
The Green Energy Doors Open (GEDO) tour Sept. 30 to Oct. 1 showcases passive and net zero homes and buildings around Ottawa — as well as an Energy Showcase featuring green energy exhibits that will provide a snapshot into the future of sustainable living.
“It’s really a way to showcase the upcoming future lifestyles, the low carbon lifestyle that we are going to have to adopt eventually,” said Paul Cairns, executive director of SMARTNet Alliance, a tour partner that develops green energy business networks.
