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)

SECTOR COVERAGE GREEN PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

• GREEN TOWER PROJECT

• NATIONAL GREEN SOCIAL HOUSING PROJECT

• ECO-VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT

RENEWABLES & CLEAN TECH

• NATIONAL CDM PROJECT FOR SOLAR ENERGY

• NATIONAL ACTION FOR GREENENERGY EFFICIENT BUILDINGS

• ENERGY EFFICIENCY & MEP CONTRACTING

WASTE TO ENERGY

• NATIONAL WASTE STRAETGY & ADVISORY

• MSW TREATMENT PLANT

AGRICULTURE

• HYDROPONIC AGRICULTURE

• BIO-FARMING COOPERATIVE

MISSION & VISION Engineer financial models through which

we can harness green technologies to make it widely affordable to every household

Act as a catalyst for the exponential growth in the rate of adoption of green technologies in the residential sector

VALUE STATEMENTS Adopt cutting edge clean technologies exclusively

Support government initiatives as a means of offsetting high technology costs

Be a reliable developer, service provider and advisor

Create long term alliances with stakeholders which outlive project lifetimes

Create enterprise value by properly hedging risks and maintaining growth

THE PROJECTS

THE NATIONAL CDM PROJECT FOR SOLAR ENERGY IN LEBANON (NASEL) APPROVED AND EXECUTION STARTED IN JAN 2009

THE NATIONAL ACTION FOR GREEN ENERGY EFFICIENT BUILDINGS INITIATED JAN 2010

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.

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

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

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

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 • Waste management and recycling compartments

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

STRUCTURE AND ENVELOP

RESILIENT STRUCTURE INSULATED ENVELOPE

Hybrid structure with interlocking seamless brick or wood skin

Vapor and thermal barrier wrap exceeding FEE Standard

Traditional Victorian house skin made of bricks

Double glazed low-e windows

Long lifetime exceeding traditional building material

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

ENERGY EFFICIENT APPLIANCES

A+ RATED APPLIANCES SOFT START/ LOW LOAD

• Energy and water efficient eco-bubble washing machine

• Highly insulated chest fridge with Inverter variable speed compressor

• Gas or wood pellet operated oven top

• LED TV screen and lighting

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

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

PASSIVE HOUSE DESIGN

PASSIVE DESIGN LIMITED HEATING & COOLING

• Advanced location specific 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

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 from the inside

• Affordable technologies which require low running cost

• Technologies that fit local traditions and usage habits

THE VALUE PROPOSITION • The Green Future Housing solution

encompasses all the processes needed to build a new house including design, engineering, permitting, building, certification and financing

• A SMART house can be supplied within three months and built within 2 to 6 weeks depending on location and terrain topography
