Net-Zero Energy-Ready Challenge Winner Series

The Net-Zero Energy-Ready (NZER) Challenge is a provincial CleanBC incentive program for large buildings (multi-unit residential, office, retail, commercial, institutional, etc.) launched in late 2018. In addition to providing financial support for developments targeting NZER levels of performance, the program aims to celebrate, promote and learn from these innovative and energy-efficient projects.

In 2018, with some high-performance building projects underway in Pemberton, Vidorra Developments, a developer and builder, embarked on another development in the heart of Golden, British Columbia. OSO, which means bear in Spanish, is a mixed-use development consisting of two buildings with commercial units on the ground floor and residential units above. Some small standalone amenity and commercial buildings are located between and behind the two larger buildings.
