In 2023, Imperial Homes Corporation, a Philippine-based real estate developer, was recognized as an EDGE Champion by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group. This distinction honors companies that demonstrate leadership in sustainable building practices by committing to certify a significant portion of their building portfolios using the EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies) green building standard.

Imperial Homes earned this recognition through its commitment to integrating sustainability and resiliency into its housing projects. Notably, the company developed Via Verde Trece Martires, a residential subdivision in Cavite, which is among the first in the Philippines to implement solar net-metering. This project achieved EDGE Advanced certification and is considered EDGE Zero Carbon-ready, indicating that it produces more energy than it consumes and exports the surplus back to the grid.

As an EDGE Champion, Imperial Homes joins a select group of developers across Asia committed to advancing green building practices. The company’s efforts contribute to the broader goal of promoting sustainable, affordable housing solutions in the region.
