- PassivHaus
- Passive House 'PassivHaus' is a rigorous energy efficiency standard that significantly reduces a building's ecological footprint, resulting in ultra-low energy buildings that require little energy for space heating or cooling.
- Cairn Homes
- In addition to Niven Oaks, Cairn is developing other Passive House standard projects in Dublin, such as Pipers Square in Charlestown (598 apartments), Whitehaven in Santry (255 apartments), and Cooper Square in Seven Mills (608 apartments). These initiatives reflect Cairn's commitment to building energy-efficient homes that contribute to climate action while addressing housing needs.
