Certified sustainability projects

Project Description

Salazar is a residential project located in Peru, with over 8,119 m² built, designed under a resource-efficiency approach applied to multifamily development. Its design integrates energy and water-saving strategies aimed at reducing the housing's environmental impact without compromising residents' comfort.

Salazar holds EDGE certification (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies), which validates compliance with minimum energy, water, and materials savings compared to an equivalent conventional building.

What makes this project innovative?

The innovation of Salazar lies in incorporating measurable, certifiable sustainability criteria into a mid-scale residential project, a segment where these practices are not yet the norm.

The project stands out for:

• Reducing energy consumption through LED lighting and efficient equipment in common areas and apartments.
• Optimizing water use with low-flow fixtures and sanitary fittings.
• Using construction materials with a lower embodied carbon footprint.
• Applying the modeling and technical audit process required to back the savings committed to under EDGE.

Project impact

Salazar was designed to meet the minimum thresholds required by EDGE in the energy, water, and materials categories, helping to reduce the environmental footprint of residential real estate development in the country.
