MGR Building Group — Energy Efficient Home
What is Energy Efficient Home?
An Energy Efficient Home is a sustainably designed residence that aims to minimise energy consumption, reduce environmental impact, and deliver long-term cost savings. These homes are designed to comply with or exceed the minimum energy rating requirements outlined in the National Construction Code (NCC) and relevant state regulations.
Key principles include passive solar design, thermal insulation, strategic window placement, and the integration of energy-efficient systems. Materials and construction methods are chosen to enhance the building envelope's performance, reduce heating and cooling demand, and improve indoor comfort all year round.
Depending on the level of efficiency desired, systems may include solar panels, battery storage, double-glazed windows, high R-value insulation, and low-emission building materials. These features collectively help create a home that is not only environmentally responsible but also cost-effective to run.
