Novarick Homes Commits to Green Building Standards as New Corporate

October 2, 2024by Nosakhare Ogbemudia

In a significant move towards advancing sustainable real estate development,

Novarick Homes has become a corporate member of the Green Building Council

Nigeria (GBCN), furthering its commitment to environmentally responsible housing

solutions.

As part of this membership, Noah Ibrahim, CEO of Novarick Homes, has

been inducted as a professional member of the GBCN, reflecting the company’s

ongoing dedication to promoting eco-friendly and sustainable practices within

Nigeria’s real estate sector.

The Green Building Council Nigeria (GBCN) is a membership-based organization

dedicated to transforming the built environment in Nigeria by advocating for

practices that are environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable. GBCN is

part of the World Green Building Council, a global network of over 70 national

councils, including 12 across Africa, that collaborate to promote green building

initiatives. The organization addresses key barriers in Nigeria’s construction sector,

including a lack of technical expertise and access to green building materials,

through education, partnerships, and the creation of relevant standards.

Speaking on Novarick Homes’ new status as a corporate member, Noah Ibrahim

expressed optimism about the role green building practices can play in shaping the

future of real estate in Nigeria. “Our mission at Novarick has always been to provide

eco-friendly, affordable housing solutions that contribute to a healthier and more

sustainable environment. Becoming a part of GBCN is a natural extension of this

commitment,” Ibrahim stated. “By ensuring that all our projects are Edge Certified,

we aim to reduce energy, water, and material costs, while creating long-term value

for our residents and mitigating the environmental impact of our developments.”

Edge Certification, an internationally recognized green building rating system, will

now be implemented across all Novarick Homes projects. This certification

underscores the company’s efforts to reduce energy consumption, lower water

usage, and utilize sustainable building materials, ultimately reducing the

environmental footprint of its developments.

The decision to align with GBCN also speaks to Novarick’s broader vision of leading a

green revolution within the Nigerian real estate sector. “Our strategy is focused not

only on building homes but on creating communities that prioritize sustainability,”

said Amina Falade, Head of Sustainability at Novarick Homes. “With the support of GBCN, we’re better positioned to meet international green building standards and

educate the public on the importance of eco-friendly living.”

GBCN has identified several challenges within Nigeria’s real estate and construction

sector, ranging from unregulated markets to the unavailability of green materials. As

part of its mission, the council aims to eliminate these barriers by incentivizing the

adoption of green building practices. Commenting on Novarick’s corporate

membership, Chinedu Obasi, Executive Director at GBCN, noted, “We are pleased to

welcome Novarick Homes as a corporate member. Their commitment to sustainable

building aligns perfectly with our vision of transforming Nigeria’s built environment

through green practices.”

With an emphasis on eco-consciousness, Novarick Homes continues to push the

boundaries of what sustainable development means in Nigeria. As the country

moves towards more environmentally responsible building practices, the company’s

membership in GBCN highlights its role as a leader in green real estate, dedicated to

reducing environmental impact while providing quality housing solutions.
