3. GREEN FUTURE IS REBORN
THE TWO JOIN FORCES IN 2005 AND REVIVE,
GREEN FUTURE LTD, A COMPANY
ESTABLISHED IN 1969 BY THEIR LATE FATHER
SERVING REMOTE VILLAGES IN COLUMBIA
WITH SOLAR PV SYSTEMS, A SPACE
TECHNOLOGY THEN
GREEN FUTURE STARTS EVALUATING
OPPORTUNITIES IN LEBANON BY FUNDING A
SERIES OF MARKET RESEARCHES IN THE
WASTE, ENERGY AND WATER SECTORS IN
CLOSE COLLABORATION WITH THE UNDP AND
WB. MARKET FINDINGS WERE ANALYZED AND
A 10 YEAR PLAN WAS FORMULATED WITH THE
ENDORSEMENT OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT, BDL
AND THE EIB. THE PLAN WAS INITIATIED
THROUGH SEVERAL MINISTERIAL DECREES
AND BDL CIRCULARS:
BDL CIRCULAIRE 236 (2012)
BDL CIRCULAIRE 313 (2013)

BUILDING A NEW HOUSE

11. WOOD AS AN ALTERNATIVE
BUILDING MATERIAL
• One Cubic meter of wood can sequester
one ton of CO2 eq. emissions
• An average UK dwelling will need four
cubic meters of wood of which are soft
timber, plywood and OSB
• Wood can replace brick, mortar, plaster
and steel in the construction process thus
further reducing emissions by another 24
tons of CO2 eq.
12. EMISSIONS DUE TO
RESIDENTIAL ENERGY USE
• Gas and other fuels used in residences
result in 3.58 tons of CO2 eq/ average
household
• Electricity consumption represents another
3.27 tons CO2 eq/ average household
• Green Future Ltd. Provides a zero carbon
solution for each of its dwellings by
reducing demand and providing alternative
energy sources thus offsetting another 6.85
tons CO2 eq yearly/ average household
13. STRATEGY
Capitalize on low carbon grants and clean tech
subsidized financing to reduce end user price and offer
ZERO CARBON housing at an affordable price (i.e. the
monthly installment is equivalent to the household rent
cost and energy cost)
Positioning: premium quality housing solution at a Zero
Net Cost
Consumer Promise:
Financing model such that monthly installment is less than rent and
energy cost
Premium quality product with 25 years warranty
Advanced technology and High performance guaranteed by regular
maintenance and monitoring
14. THE GREEN FUTURE VALUE
ADD
• Provide technical
assistance , QC and post
construction monitoring
• Offset GHG emissions and
certify the built houses for
6 star rating
• Train local communities
on most advanced and
sustainable building
technologies
• Provide access to subsidized
financing for zero carbon
house projects
• Design and engineer location
specific sustainable dwellings
• Assist in the procurement of
relevant technologies at
competitive costs
• Evaluate and value engineer
design based on latest
available building solutions
15. INNOVATION PACKED
• Location specific Passive house design meeting BRE 6 star rating
• Hybrid wood based House Structure including roof
• External new technology joint-less stone wall cladding system with double
glazed low-e windows
• Vapor and newly adopted thermal insulation technology for envelop
• LED Lighting with critical power network connected to power back-up
• Regular power network with A-rated basic appliances (Refrigerator,
washing machine, stove and oven, microwave)
• Central heating system with panel radiators, biomass boiler, Solar water
heating system and storage tank
• Solar PV panels and wind turbine contributing to 100% of power
connected to emergency back-up storage along with a uniquely developed
energy management system
• High tech composting toilets with grey water treatment system

17. FOUNDATION
GROUND OR RAISED QUICK & COST EFFECTIVE
• Minimal foundation
requirements and limited
leveling
• Includes all utility
installations & piping
• Insulated base to enhance
full building efficiency and
meet BRE 6 star rating
• Low labor requirement and
cost
18. STRUCTURE AND ENVELOP
RESILIENT STRUCTURE INSULATED ENVELOPE

19. SOLAR SYSTEMS
SOLAR HEATING & PV LOCAL ENERGY GENERATION
• Solar heating panels are
integrated into the rooftop
to provide daily hot water
and assist central heating
• Photovoltaic panels are also
installed adjacent to heating
panels in an aesthetic
manner and offsetting all
the house power
consumption
20. ENERGY EFFICIENT
APPLIANCES
A+ RATED APPLIANCES SOFT START/ LOW LOAD

operated oven top
• LED TV screen and lighting
21. LOCALIZED WATER TREATMENT
NO MORE WASTE WATER
• Black water treated through
aerobic digestion
• Waste water is reduced to a
fertilizing compost
• Liquid component is
evaporated
• Typical in use and shape to
regular toilets
• Does not require any
maintenance or consumables
TYPICAL INSTALLATION
22. BIOMASS BOILER/ HEATER
BIOMASS BOILER/ STOVE NO MORE DIESEL
• Additional heating needs
are reduced to minimum
• Auxiliary Biomass boiler/
stove requires minimal
installation needs
• Used fuel can be any
biomass (olive seed, pine
seed crust, sawdust, wood
pellets,…) which can
provide equivalent heating
to diesel at 1/5 the cost
23. PASSIVE HOUSE DESIGN
PASSIVE DESIGN LIMITED HEATING & COOLING

architectural design making
use of the site natural
resources
• Maximized utilization of
solar radiation for indoor
heating in winter while
being shaded in summer
• Kitchen positioned to be
ventilated naturally by local
wind currents
24. A SMART GREEN FUTURE
HOUSE
TRADITIONAL DESIGN
OLD LOOKS /
NEW TECHNOLOGY
• A Green Future house is a
traditional house from the
outside
• A SMART passive house
