Building Green in Tight Spaces: Lessons From a Net Zero Duplex in Calgary
The Wicklow, a Net Zero duplex in Calgary’s Seton community by Brookfield Residential, demonstrates how thoughtful design and tight coordination can overcome space and climate challenges in sustainable homebuilding. By using prefabricated wall panels, upgraded insulation and carefully integrated mechanical systems, the project achieved high energy efficiency despite limited solar space and complex logistics. It highlights that achieving Net Zero isn’t about reinventing construction—it’s about smarter planning and execution with existing teams and technologies.
