The Shift Toward Green Building Practices
Introduction:
Sustainability is becoming a key factor for homebuyers and property developers in Kenya. Eco-friendly homes are not only better for the environment but also cost-efficient in the long run.
Features of Sustainable Homes:
- Solar Power Integration: More homes are being equipped with solar panels, reducing dependence on the grid.
- Rainwater Harvesting: Many new developments are incorporating systems to collect and use rainwater for non-potable purposes.
- Energy-Efficient Designs: Double-glazed windows, insulated walls, and energy-saving appliances are becoming common in modern homes.
As awareness about climate change grows, the demand for sustainable homes will likely increase, making it an essential trend for developers to focus on.
