RENEWABLE ENERGY PROJECTS
Orange Buffalo Lodge - RHI #3
Phase: Construction
In 2023, the City of Regina was awarded $6.6 million in capital funding through the Government of Canada’s Rapid Housing Initiative (Round 3) to support the creation of at least 25 new affordable housing units. This initiative is part of a national effort to address Canada’s housing crisis by accelerating the development of safe, stable, and affordable homes.
The North Central Family Centre (NCFC) was selected as the City’s local non-profit housing partner to lead both the development and long-term operation of the project, in recognition of their longstanding leadership and impact within the community.
This project will be Orange Buffalo Lodge — a 30-unit multi-family residential building slated for completion in 2025. Located in the heart of Regina’s North Central neighbourhood, the project will provide safe, culturally respectful, and affordable housing for individuals and families. In addition to high-quality residential units, the development will incorporate community-driven design principles, support wraparound services, and contribute to the revitalization and well-being of the broader neighbourhood.

The PIRANHA Wastewater Heat Recovery system helped this development achieve Canada Mortgage & Housing (CMHC) program energy efficiency requirements, by exceeding 25% better than the National Energy Code for Buildings (NECB).
In this project, the PIRANHA Wastewater Heat Recovery System is projected to provide over 90% of domestic hot water requirements at a COP of 340%, contributing 13% of the 30.3% better than NECB achieved.
