Net-zero greenhouse gas emissions and net-zero energy

This project has two ambitious targets: (1) net-zero greenhouse gas emissions and (2) net-zero energy. The property will no longer use any fossil fuels for heat or electricity and the solar garden (with reduced consumption via retrofits) will meet 100% of the properties annual electricity/thermal demand.

Pine Tree Park Estates

Pine Tree Park Estates (former Lingan Road Radar Base) has long been an asset with great potential. The property – comprised of 80 acres with many unused but serviced lots – presently houses largely community non-profits (Elizabeth Fry, New Dawn Guest Home, New Dawn Home Living, Bridge Club) and a mix (age, income, occupation, etc.) of residents.

Specifically, Pine Tree Park Estates is comprised of housing (28 homes in duplex construction), an assisted living home (30 care beds), a private care home, the Schooner Curling Club, and Elizabeth Fry Society (housing for participants).
