We are committed to the Paris Climate Agreement and our objectives, to be achieved by 2030, are carbon neutrality in our own operations and emission reductions of over 30% in construction, using 2019 as the baseline.
We promote the achievement of the objectives at Helsingin Kuninkaankallio as follows:

Emission calculation
Among other things, carbon footprint calculations are used in residential construction for choosing materials that place less burden on the environment.

Renewable electricity at a construction site
Wind-generated electricity is the only source of energy used at construction sites.

Recycling at a construction site
At least 75% of the construction waste at a construction site is being sorted for recycling.

Water fixtures
Kitchens, bathrooms and toilets are equipped with water-saving water fixtures such as taps.

Waste sorting system at home
Kitchens are equipped with a waste sorting system to help with recycling.

Recycling at a housing company
The process of sorting waste for recycling is tidy and efficient thanks to modern recycling points in housing companies.

Solar panels
Zero-emission energy helps in covering the energy consumption of technical building systems, such as ventilation, and the building’s shared facilities.

Electric car charging points
Some of the parking spaces in a new residential building include the option to install a charging point for an electric car, which makes the installation of the charging device possible as needed.

Water consumption
Apartment-specific monitoring of consumption in YIT’s own service channel (YIT Plus) helps in water-saving.

Monitoring of technical building systems
YIT’s Valvomo-service (Control room) takes care of, for example, the energy-efficient use of ventilation and heating.
