charging ahead: Sekisui powers up The Orchards with innovative EV chargers
Sekisui House, a Japanese developer, has made an innovative move to incorporate electric vehicle (EV) chargers into the overall energy solution for its The Orchards masterplan development.
The Orchards is a golf side apartment complex located in Sydney, Australia, and is part of the larger masterplan development Sekisui House is constructing. With the introduction of EV chargers, Sekisui House is taking a proactive step towards a more sustainable future.
The introduction of EV chargers is part of Sekisui House’s Altogether embedded energy solution, which is designed to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions in the development. The EV chargers were installed in two locations in the development, and are capable of charging up to six cars at a time. This is significant, as EV chargers are still relatively rare in Australia, and Sekisui House’s decision to install them is an example of their commitment to sustainability.
The introduction of EV chargers to The Orchards is an important step towards a more sustainable future, as it encourages the use of electric vehicles. Electric vehicles are more energy efficient than conventional petrol and diesel vehicles, and they produce significantly fewer emissions.
By introducing EV chargers, Sekisui House is helping to reduce the environmental impact of transportation in The Orchards. In addition to the environmental benefits, the introduction of EV chargers also has economic benefits for residents. Electric vehicles are becoming more popular, and the availability of EV chargers in The Orchards will make the development more attractive to potential buyers. This could result in increased demand for The Orchards, which could lead to higher sales prices and increased profits for Sekisui House.
Sekisui House's introduction of EV chargers to The Orchards is a prime example of how developers can use energy solutions to create a more sustainable future. This is being echoed by the Altogether Group, who are working with other developers and strata communities to bring them into existing energy solutions. As Allan Parker, Executive Manager of Energy Solutions, states, “we will continue to work with developers, strata communities and local governments to create energy solutions that are tailored to their needs and that are designed to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. The Orchards development is a shining example of the positive impact that energy solutions can have on the environment and the economy."
The Altogether Group is inspiring other communities to consider their own energy solutions and contact them for assistance. Their team of experts are experienced in working with developers, strata communities and local governments to create energy solutions that are tailored to their needs. Through their work, they are setting an example of how energy solutions can have a positive impact on the environment and the economy.
