EQuilibrium™ Sustainable Housing Demonstration Initiative

EQuilibrium™ is a national Sustainable Housing Demonstration initiative, led by CMHC, that brings the private and public sectors together to develop homes that combine resource- and energy-efficient technologies with renewable energy technologies in order to reduce their environmental impact. Project teams have been selected to build EQuilibrium™ Housing demonstration projects across Canada.
