Our Homes Harness the Power of Sunshine
At Green Key Village, we don’t just put solar panels on a home and call it “green”. We make sure that every part of your home is better for your health, your wallet, and the environment. While you enjoy the sunlit spaces, your home is enjoying soaking in the sun and turning it into energy. This is done through photovoltaic (PV) panels and inverters that generate electricity and then transfer it from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). It’s all connected to a utility grid and any excess energy is fed back through to be used at night. The solar panels generate enough energy to cover what the average household consumes and you can monitor your use through a web-based service subscription at no ongoing cost to you.
Our eco-friendly, net-zero homes offer you and your family an overall healthy indoor environment. It’s our top priority to make your home as comfortable and healthy as possible while saving you money. You’ll find advanced ventilation systems that provide clean air and filter out outside pollutants and allergens. With the low-flow Watersense® plumbing fixtures and water-saving irrigation system, you can enjoy saving on your water bill. In addition, you can receive a tax credit on your Federal tax return equal to 30% of the cost of the solar array, saving you thousands. Each Estate home is tested and certified by Energy Star® and the Florida Green Building Coalition and has a near zero or below zero on the HERS index.
With Green Key Village homes, you can rest assured that you’re buying a home that’s on the cutting edge of home design, technology, energy efficiency, and sustainability. Homes that treat you and the environment right.
