Sky Blue Impacts’ approach to social housing in emerging markets hinges on integrating high-density development with renewable energy solutions, addressing the critical energy needs of large-scale communities. By combining solar farms (1-5 MW) and LNG-powered fuel cells with a robust energy management system, their model ensures seamless energy supply for projects starting at 1,000 dwelling units on a minimum of 20 hectares. This is particularly vital in areas with limited or no existing infrastructure, as seen in their African projects.

Their strategy emphasizes cost reduction through:

• Smart funding solutions: Likely leveraging public-private partnerships, grants, or innovative financing to lower upfront costs.
• Smart building design: Optimizing materials and layouts to reduce construction expenses while maintaining quality.
• Cost transfer strategies: Possibly shifting infrastructure costs to shared models or integrating revenue-generating retail to subsidize housing.
