Sustainable / Green Building

Green building and sustainable construction in Nigeria

Future-proof your investment. Buildings designed for Nigeria's sun and rain can cost far less to run, and meet the ESG expectations of tenants, lenders and investors.

Balarabe Musa, Victoria Island: residential building with deep shading overhangs

Titan offers eco-conscious design, solar integration, water-reuse systems and guidance on international rating systems such as LEED and BREEAM. We calculate life-cycle costs and carbon footprints so you can see the saving over the life of the building, not only the cost on day one.

Design for the climate

Deep overhangs, shaded balconies, cross-ventilation and the right glazing keep heat out, reducing the load on air-conditioning and generators. Many of the contemporary homes we build in Lekki and Victoria Island use these ideas.

Energy and water

Solar and battery systems cut diesel use and give quieter, cleaner power. Rainwater harvesting and grey-water reuse ease the load on boreholes and public supply. Combined with efficient fittings and good maintenance, they lower operating costs year after year.

FAQ

Questions about sustainable / green building

Is green building more expensive?

Some measures add cost at the start; many, such as shading and orientation, cost little. We show the payback of each option with life-cycle costing, so you can choose.

Can existing buildings be made more efficient?

Yes. Retrofits such as solar, efficient cooling and water reuse can be added to existing buildings through our renovation service.
