NINE families have moved into Cross Keys Homes' first affordable green homes at The Meadows, in Eye, near Peterborough.The properties were completed in December.
Since then, nine families have set up home and are getting to grips with their environmentally-friendly technology, including solar panelling.
Another 22 affordable homes are being provided by the housing association over the next few months.
Cross Keys Homes is providing the homes in conjunction with its development partner, Circle Anglia.
The properties, built by Larkfleet Homes, include two and three-bedroomed houses for rent and shared ownership.
Chief executive of Cross Keys Homes Mick Leggett said: "We are committed to reducing Cross Keys Homes' carbon footprint. Our environmental manifesto drives us to work with companies such as Larkfleet, which is also committed to using renewable energy sources where possible.
"This helps those living in the homes to save money on their bills and adds to the significant reduction in our carbon footprint already achieved through our 100 million works to our existing properties."
