This heightened consumer awareness is driven by growing environmental concerns and the appeal of green building designs that incorporate natural and renewable resources.

The rising costs and consumption of energy are expected to be key drivers of growth in the single-family housing green buildings market in the years ahead. Energy costs refer to the expenses associated with heating homes or other residential properties, while energy consumption reflects the amount of energy used to perform various activities and maintain living spaces. Energy efficiency and cost reduction are top priorities for green single-family housing. By incorporating energy-efficient features and practices, builders and homeowners can reduce their environmental impact and achieve long-term cost savings. For instance, energy expenditures in the United States surged by 25% to $3,967 per capita in 2021 compared to the previous year, as reported by the Energy Information Administration in August 2023. Additionally, the average residential electricity price in the United States increased by 11%, from 13.66 cents per kWh in 2021 to 15.12 cents per kWh in May 2023. Therefore, the escalating energy costs and consumption are fueling growth in the single-family housing green building market.
Consumers and builders are increasingly focused on creating more sustainable homes by reducing their carbon footprint through the development of self-sustaining homes, known as Net-zero homes. A net-zero home generates its own energy locally and aims to produce at least as much energy as it consumes. For example, in April 2024, Mahindra Lifespace Developers Ltd., an India-based real estate and infrastructure development company, launched Mahindra Zen, the first Net Zero Waste + Energy residential project. The project demonstrated strong demand, with over 150 homes (approximately 65% of the units) sold within two days, totaling over ₹350 crore ($0.041 billion). This success highlights the growing interest in sustainable living and strengthens Mahindra Lifespaces' position in eco-friendly real estate.
In June 2023, Honeywell, a US-based multinational conglomerate, acquired Carrier Global Corporation for $4.95 billion. This acquisition aligns with Honeywell's strategy to enhance its building automation business by integrating essential products for modern management. Honeywell plans to utilize the strengths of the newly acquired business to foster innovation in cloud-based services and solutions. Carrier Global Corporation is a US-based provider of sustainable building solutions.
