Wots Hot®Energy is proud to announce that our first eco-community in Jamaica will start construction Q3 2024.
Set amidst glorious mahogany and cedar groves at 100m elevation overlooking the pristine Caribbean Sea, Mahogany Hill is a 211 home eco-community for local key workers.
Working with the National Housing Trust government mortgage scheme guaranteeing every Jamaican a home to be proud of, Mahogany Hill shines a light on what can be achieved with limited budget combined with thought and careful design.

Specially planted surface soakaways direct rainwater runoff into roadside gardens throughout the village. Water recapture from every rooftop supplements domestic usage.
The village is served by a purpose built eco-friendly reed bed waste water treatment system. An on-site tree nursery for indigenous flora and fauna is being created as part of a five year plan post construction to regenerate natural land.
Mahogany Hill’s houses are single storey family homes with two bedrooms and one bathroom, a sun/shade veranda, car port, and generous garden. Many smart home features are included such as solar panels and pre-installed conduits and services cupboards to allow for retro-fitting of new technologies as they become available throughout the life of the home.
