At Deveraux, sustainability isn’t a trend; it’s a long-term commitment that shapes how we build, operate, and grow our communities. As part of that commitment, we are proud to announce the installation of more than 200 new Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations across our Winnipeg properties. This milestone represents a significant investment in cleaner transportation infrastructure and a meaningful step forward in supporting residents who are choosing electric mobility.

The demand for EV charging continues to grow as more Canadians make the switch to electric vehicles, and we believe residential communities should evolve alongside that shift. By expanding access to convenient, reliable charging at home, we’re helping remove barriers to EV adoption while enhancing everyday living for our residents. These upgrades also align with our broader Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) priorities, reducing emissions, supporting sustainable lifestyles, and future-proofing our communities.

And this is just the beginning. In 2026, we will expand our EV infrastructure further with the addition of 80 new charging stations across our Regina properties. Looking ahead, EV charging will continue to be prioritized as a standard amenity in all new Deveraux developments currently under construction and in the design phase. We’re also leading by example by adding our first electric vehicle to the Deveraux fleet, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable operations from the ground up.

These investments reflect our long-term vision: building communities that are not only comfortable and connected, but also environmentally responsible. As we continue to grow our EV infrastructure, we’re proud to play a role in supporting cleaner transportation, reducing environmental impact, and contributing to a more sustainable future for the communities we serve.

We are thrilled to announce a groundbreaking development at The Legacy at Griesbach by Deveraux Group of Companies – the installation of a state-of-the-art 258 kW solar array on the rooftops of our two new apartment buildings. This innovative addition, launched on March 15, 2024, is designed to elevate the energy efficiency of these buildings by an impressive 30%.

A Commitment to Environmental Stewardship

The driving force behind this project is our unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability. The solar array significantly reduces reliance on the traditional power grid for both tenants and building operations, fostering energy autonomy through efficient energy harvesting and sustainable design principles. This initiative underscores our dedication to creating sustainable environments for current and future generations.

Innovative Design and Implementation

What sets this solar array apart is its transformative approach to energy efficiency in apartment developments. Unlike typical projects, which support 60-100 kW systems, our ambitious design covers over 70% of the rooftop space, setting a new benchmark in sustainable building practices. Our comprehensive site assessment and design optimization ensured maximum solar energy generation, addressing structural and environmental constraints effectively.

We employed cutting-edge technologies and innovative mounting systems to enhance the performance and efficiency of the solar array. This meticulous attention to detail, combined with seamless coordination among engineers, architects, and contractors, facilitated a smooth and successful installation process.

Measurable Impact

The impact of this solar array is both significant and measurable. By dramatically reducing energy consumption and dependence on the grid, the system delivers substantial cost savings for tenants and building operators. Additionally, this project advances our sustainability goals, contributing to a reduced environmental footprint and promoting a greener, more sustainable community.

At Deveraux Group of Companies, we are proud to pioneer such innovative solutions, pushing the boundaries of conventional solar design to achieve remarkable results. This project is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and our vision for a brighter, more sustainable future.
