Anticipated growth in the multi-family residential green building market is propelled by increased investments in energy efficiency. Emphasizing reduced energy waste, energy efficiency strategies in multi-family residential green buildings involve sustainable construction techniques and materials that aim to curtail energy consumption within shared living spaces. A report by the International Energy Agency in 2021 underscores a notable surge in global investments in energy efficiency, soaring by 10% to almost USD 300 billion, particularly directed towards the building industry and transport sector. This surge in energy efficiency investments significantly drives the growth of the multi-family residential green building market.

The escalation in costs poses a challenge for both buyers and suppliers in their pursuit of investing further in the multifamily housing green buildings market. Green buildings, in contrast to conventional properties, entail higher construction expenses and necessitate more substantial initial investments. As reported by Smart CRE in May 2022, the average construction cost for a green building is approximately 2% higher than traditional properties. Notably, since most owners offer these homes for rent, renters often benefit from the advantages of a green home without paying an additional premium. This perception restrains homeowners from further investing in green buildings due to the cost differential, posing a constraint on the market's growth.

Consumers and builders are collaborating to spearhead the development of more sustainable residences, placing a strong emphasis on reducing carbon footprints by promoting the creation of self-sustaining homes, famously known as Net-zero homes. These homes aim to generate their energy using diverse domestic renewable energy technologies like solar panels, micro wind turbines, sinkholes, and compost gas, striving to produce an equal or greater amount of energy than they consume. Forecasts project a substantial surge in the Net-zero home stock, expected to rise from 57,800 homes in 2019 to an estimated 534,500 homes by 2028. Remarkably, around 36% of multi-family home builders are engaged in constructing green homes, with 80% categorized as dedicated green home builders, pursuing over 90% of their projects in the green home domain. An anticipated growth to 47% by 2022 reflects an upward trajectory in green building practices, showcasing a rising trend of net-zero homes within the residential construction market.

Key industry players within the multifamily housing green buildings market are introducing groundbreaking eco-friendly green cement alternatives such as ECOPlanet to address the growing demand for sustainability in construction. ECOPlanet represents a revolutionary line of green cement solutions committed to reducing carbon footprints by at least 30%. For instance, in July 2021, Holcim, a Switzerland-based building material company, introduced Ecoplanet, a green building solution that adheres to the world's most stringent sustainable building standards, including certifications like BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) and LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). This innovative product follows the success of ECOPact, Holcim's comprehensive range of green concrete, already making a substantial impact across more than twenty global markets. The introduction of ECOPlanet signifies a pivotal step forward in the pursuit of sustainable and eco-conscious construction practices.
