Apartments in Asunto Oy Kuopion Hiihtomestari

In 2019, we committed to halve the material emissions of our residential buildings by 2030, and we aim to heat YIT Homes carbon neutrally.

This is how we aim to achieve these objectives in Kuopion Hiihtomestari:

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.

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.
