Ucluelet Passive House

The District of Ucluelet in cooperation with Marken Projects is proposing the opportunity to develop as LEED Home and Passive House certified, affordable housing project to be constructed on a subdivision lot in Ucluelet, BC. This project is supported by the Live Smart Super Efficient Construction Program and the Ministry of Energy and Mines and is aiming to utilize materials and construction methods which a readily available in Canada.

The project is the realization of a unique concept which aims at achieving net zero emissions and the ability to move towards a net-metering situation. The realization of a “green” single-family dwelling would be a much awaited addition to the existing sustainable projects in the District of Ucluelet. It is a progressive step forward towards transforming ideas and models into tangible structures, which will demonstrate the viability of such ventures.

Ucluelet is a small community with a population of approximately 1800 located on the West Coast of Vancouver Island. The community has been on the transformation path of shifting from a resource based economy to a service based economy. In doing so the District has placed a very strong emphasis on attaining development through economically, socially and environmentally sustainable means. The community has shown an unfailing commitment towards energy efficient and green practices through its Official Community Plan, land-use and development policies and overall attitude.
