Fēnix Energy Joins Green Building Experts, Making Vancouver UN Global Centre of Excellence

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- On foot of the United Nations endorsing Passive House as a global standard, came the stark reminder of the importance of making buildings better. Actively involved in this space is Vancouver-based Fēnix Energy. The clean technology company is growing a reputation by working with developers and municipalities to create the greenest cities across North America one high-rise at a time. With new multi-million dollar contracts signed this quarter, Fēnix is also actively adding to the sustainable building stock of the Greater Vancouver skyline.

"To quote UN Deputy Secretary-General, Amina J. Mohammad, 'Buildings are responsible for 32% of global energy consumption and a quarter of carbon dioxide emissions. Improving the sector's performance is critical for climate action,'" commented Adrian Ryan, Director, Fēnix Energy.

"Vancouver developers, utilities and commercial real estate investors are acutely aware of the challenge and opportunity," Adrian continued. "We are supporting several local projects; managing the design, construction, ownership and operation of high-rise developments as thermal energy assets. In short, we capture and reuse the energy that's generated and unfortunately all too often wasted. It is proving very successful. We've negotiated numerous multi-million dollar contracts in 2017 and expect to partner on more before the year is out."

Adrian concluded, "Initiatives from Passive House, LEED, International Well Building Institute, the Canadian and US Green Building Councils, Rocky Mountain Institute, and United Nations, are vital for increasing not only the profile of green engineering but the returns for community, economy and environment."
