The Stockholm Passive House Project
In the environmentally conscious market of Stockholm, the developer sought to construct a residential project
3-bedroom semi-detached affordable houses.
In Liverpool, a growing demand for affordable housing presented a significant challenge: building high-quality, low-cost homes quickly, without compromising on energy efficiency. The project aimed to provide a solution that not only addressed the financial constraints of potential homeowners but also tackled the issue of fuel poverty through superior energy performance.
MMC Eco Homes leveraged its panelised system to construct a series of energy-efficient, 3-bedroom semi-detached homes. This method allowed for rapid construction while ensuring each home met stringent energy-saving standards, reducing heating costs significantly for residents. The design incorporated advanced insulation materials, energy-efficient windows, and airtight construction techniques to achieve these goals.
This phase involved rigorous planning to design homes that maximized energy efficiency and minimized construction costs. Each unit was engineered to make the best use of space while incorporating features that would ensure long-term savings on utility bills.
The developer, committed to using their in-house construction team, sought specialized eco-friendly materials and expert guidance to meet these objectives. The use of prefabricated panels expedited the building process, allowing the structural framework of each house to be erected in just days. This rapid assembly method not only reduced construction noise and disruption—a significant advantage in the dense urban environment of Liverpool—but also shortened the overall project timeline.
Following the assembly of the houses, focus shifted to internal systems designed to enhance energy efficiency, including state-of-the-art heating systems and smart thermostats that allow residents to control their energy use more effectively. The homes were finished to high standards, ensuring they were not only affordable but also aesthetically pleasing and comfortable.
“MMC Eco Homes has provided affordable housing solutions without compromising on utility costs. The energy-efficient design of these homes has significantly reduced heating expenses, making budget management easier while ensuring a comfortable living environment. Additionally, the rapid construction process meant the homes were ready much quicker than expected, offering timely relief for families in need of housing.” Anthony W, UK Builder
The construction of the homes was completed in record time, with the entire housing development being ready for occupancy several months ahead of conventional building schedules.
The homes achieved excellent energy performance ratings, significantly reducing the energy costs for residents and contributing to the alleviation of fuel poverty in the community.
The cost-effective panelised construction method used by MMC Eco Homes significantly lowered the overall development cost, making the homes affordable to those on limited budgets.
The project was well-received, with residents and local authorities praising the quick turnaround, high quality of construction, and the energy savings provided by the new homes.
