Green Developments
In Costa Rica, green real estate developments are becoming more and more popular. With sustainable development encouraged by the Costa Rican government combined with abundant solar, wind and hydroelectric energy, it is no surprise that Costa Rica is on the leading edge of green development. Grants are available to developers and investors who purchase recycled building materials and sustainable green building materials locally and choose locations that maximize the use of natural energy sources. Innovative usage of drainage for hydroelectric power, rooftops for wind turbines and solar panels and mountain streams and for cooling and refrigeration are all green architecture techniques that are now in play at many green real estate developments throughout Costa Rica.
