Climate Toolkit for Housing and Infrastructure
Climate Toolkit for Housing and Infrastructure: Helping communities build smarter, faster and stronger
Building future-ready, energy efficient housing and infrastructure helps communities protect residents and save money. Factoring long-term risks and lifecycle costs into planning and projects can reduce operating expenses, service disruptions, and costly repairs, improving affordability over time.
That's why the federal government is offering a suite of free services to help communities build and retrofit future-ready, energy efficient housing and infrastructure.
