19 Outubro 2023 - 3:00PM
Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: HOV), a leading national
homebuilder, announced that it received two United States
Department of Energy (DOE) 2023 Housing Innovation Awards. The
Housing Innovation Awards recognize leading homebuilders from
across the country who are constructing Zero Energy Ready Homes
(ZERH), the federal government’s highest certification program for
home performance. Homes certified to the ZERH program deliver truly
best-in-class performance, providing American homeowners with
exceptional value, quality, and comfort. The DOE defines a zero
energy ready home as a high-performance home which is so energy
efficient, that a renewable energy system can offset all or most of
the home’s annual energy consumption.
Hovnanian’s Northeast Division received the 2023
ZERH Champion Award, which is presented to the homebuilder with the
most DOE Zero Energy Ready one- and two- family homes built in the
past year. The Company also received a 2023 Housing Innovation
Award for The Cove at Asbury Park, which is a contemporary
townhome-style condominium with rooftop decks a short walk from the
beach and downtown in Asbury Park, New Jersey.
“We are thrilled to receive these prestigious
awards from the DOE,” stated Ara K. Hovnanian, Chairman of the
Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer. “We are excited that
we won the 2023 ZERH Champion Award for delivering the most DOE
Zero Energy Ready homes in the country, which was an improvement
from the second-place award we received in 2022. Furthermore, we
are pleased that The Cove at Asbury Park was recognized with a 2023
Housing Innovation Award. This follows two 2022 Housing Innovation
Awards that we won last year for two other communities in New
Jersey. Over the past few years, we have made great strides in
designing and building homes that are more energy efficient.
However, we recognize that there is still more we could be doing,
and we are continually seeking to offer additional features that
will further enhance the energy efficiency of our homes.”
