Smart Savings Every Month: How RLC Residences Turns Sustainability into Everyday Value
Eco-friendly homes are no longer just about being “green”—they’re about being smart with your money. With rising electricity and water bills, Filipino homeowners are now looking for residences that combine comfort, style, and cost-efficiency. That’s exactly what RLC Residences delivers. By weaving sustainability into every design choice, they’ve proven that eco-friendly features don’t just benefit the planet—they also lower your monthly living costs.
From Concept to Cost-Saving Reality
Take Sierra Valley Gardens, RLC Residences’ most advanced sustainable community. A recent study revealed that residents can save ₱1 per square meter on monthly dues thanks to green features like energy-efficient systems and smart water management. While a peso per square meter may sound small, the savings add up significantly over time—especially for families living in larger units.
Upcoming projects like MIRA, Mantawi Residences, and Le Pont Residences are designed with passive cooling strategies, optimal building orientation, and larger windows that welcome natural light and ventilation. These reduce reliance on artificial lighting and air-conditioning, cutting down energy use and monthly electricity bills.
As Architect Conrad Erfe, Head of Design and Planning at RLC Residences, explains, “By incorporating natural light, ventilation, and energy-efficient systems early in the design, we create homes that are not only eco-conscious but also naturally cost-efficient.”
Powering Homes with Renewable Energy
RLC Residences is also taking bold steps into renewable energy. The Residences at The Westin Manila, for example, now runs its common areas on 100% renewable energy, giving homeowners 8–9% average monthly savings on their electricity bills.
Other developments—such as East of Galleria in Pasig and several BGC condominiums—have followed suit, marking a decisive shift toward cleaner and more cost-efficient communities.
Everyday Features, Everyday Impact
Sustainability at RLC Residences shows up in small but impactful ways that residents experience daily:
Hydroponics farm at Sierra Valley Gardens – fresh, affordable produce right at home.
Rainwater harvesting systems – lower water bills and greener surroundings.
Low-flow plumbing fixtures – less water wasted, no comfort sacrificed.
Low-VOC paints and adhesives – cleaner indoor air for healthier living.
EV charging stations & green open spaces – future-proof amenities built for convenience.
As Stephanie Anne Go, Vice President and Head of Business Development and Leasing puts it, “Sustainability isn’t just about the environment. It’s about making homes more comfortable, lowering costs, and improving residents’ daily lives.”
More Than Just a Buzzword
At RLC Residences, sustainability is not a marketing slogan—it’s a design philosophy with real impact. Residents enjoy lower dues, reduced energy bills, healthier spaces, and smarter systems that make homeownership both sustainable and practical.
For Filipino families, this means sustainability is no longer an optional luxury—it’s an essential feature that ensures comfort, value, and savings for the long term.
If you’re planning your next home investment, choosing one designed with sustainability in mind is more than just good for the planet—it’s good for your wallet, too. With developments like MIRA, Mantawi, and Sierra Valley Gardens, RLC Residences proves that sustainable living can be practical, personal, and powerful.
