Greenscape Capital increases the environmental sustainability and social responsibility of our built environment through the development of sustainable facilities and the energy retrofitting of existing commercial facilities.  Greenscape offers a particular focus to the parking industry.

In November, 2010, Greenscape completed the building of the world's greenest parking facility, servicing the Denver International Airport, with operating partner Propark America. This industry-transforming development has been certified as a Demonstrator Site for the Green Parking Council and will serve as a model from which new and environmentally responsible parking facilities will be built in addition to the retrofitting of existing facilities throughout North America.

 

Greenscape Capital sponsors Richard Branson’s Carbon War Room for 2010 Winter Olympics initiative

Greenscape Capital sponsors Richard Branson’s Carbon War Room for 2010 Winter Olympics initiative

Greenscape Capital Group Inc announced it is sponsoring the Carbon War Room in its partnership with Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson to launch the Green Capital Global Challenge, a one-year program focused on utilizing market-based solutions to reduce carbon emissions in the built environment.

The Carbon War Room is a thinktank co-founded by UK entrepreneur Richard Branson with the goal of harnessing the entrepreneurial spirit of business leaders and others focused on climate change to identify and disseminate locally effective models that mobilize capital to civic energy efficiency initiatives.

The Green Capital Global Challenge will be launched during the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games.

According to Greenscape, Vancouver ranks among the greenest cities in the world, Vancouverites have the smallest carbon footprint of any urban environment in North America, and Mayor Robertson has implemented a pioneering civic sustainability plan, Vancouver Green Capital.

Greenscape added it will work with the Carbon War Room, the City of Vancouver, and other participating members to facilitate access to capital, catalyze new partnerships, and achieve a market-based energy efficiency model for the world to follow.

Greenscape listed on the Toronto Venture Exchange only a few months ago, and since then has announced a flurry of transactions. Arguably the biggest announcement was released early in January 2010:  that it entered into an agreement to build a 4,200 parking facility at Denver International Airport (DIA).

The facility, according to Greenscape, will be the ‘greenest’ parking facility in the world. Referred to Greenscape as “Green Park DIA”, the facility will incorporate a plethora of renewable energy sources and environmentally friendly building techniques.  Greenscape outlined some of the technology that will be utilized, including solar and wind energy power sources, natural landscaping, porous pavement (to allow rainwater to reach the soil below) and alternatively fuelled shuttle vans.

The car park facility will have a capacity of 4,200 vehicles, and is expected to take approximately seven months to build.  Greenscape has contracted a Denver based construction company to undertake the work.  The company has also secured a 25 year land lease with an option to renewal for a further 20 years. Greenscape’s subsidiary, Green.Switch will retain a 90% interest in the facility, with car park management company, ProPark USA, holding 10%.
