role we can play in advancing the zero-carbon
building industry,” says Cupido, adding the
Joyce Centre is one of only three education in-
stitutions across Canada to be named as a
pilot project for the Zero Carbon
Building Standard.”
“Mohawk
College
made its commit-
ment to low carbon
clear from the be-
ginning,” says the
CaGBC. “The result
is a design that clear-
ly demonstrates innovative and forward-
thinking design, including these features
which made it stand out to CaGBC’s reviewers:
A rooftop photovoltaic (PV) system that
produces enough carbon-free
energy to power the new
building, a high-perfor-
mance building enve-
lope, and a variable
refrigerant flow (VRF)
geoexchange
heat
pump system that will
provide space heating
and cooling.”
“We set the bar
high at net zero.”
