Building Affordable Housing the Right Way – Sustainable, Efficient, and Resilient
Building affordable housing should never mean sacrificing quality, comfort, or energy efficiency. That’s why the Enterprise Green Communities (EGC) Certification was created—to ensure low-income housing meets high sustainability and energy efficiency standards.
At Econsultants LLC, we work with builders, developers, and housing organizations to meet the EGC standards, which improve:
- Building efficiency and energy performance
- Indoor air quality and sustainability
- Access to funding, grants, and tax incentives
What is Enterprise Green Communities Certification?
EGC is the leading green building standard for affordable housing in the U.S., ensuring homes are:
✅ Energy-efficient – Reduce energy waste and lower costs.
✅ Healthy & comfortable – Better indoor air quality and proper ventilation.
✅ Sustainable & resilient – Built to withstand extreme climate conditions.
This certification is recognized by HUD, Fannie Mae, and major financing programs, helping developers secure funding and incentives while ensuring long-term operational savings.
Steps to Certification
✔ Pre-Development Review – Ensuring your project meets EGC criteria before breaking ground.
✔ On-Site Energy & Sustainability Testing – Including blower door, duct leakage, and HVAC inspections.
✔ Final Approval & Certification – Submitting compliance reports and obtaining your official Enterprise Green Communities seal.
