The road to net zero energy is paved with good intentions. Voluntary initiatives, consensus standards, mandatory codes, and government regulations are focusing more effort on setting worthy goals for sustainable buildings that engineers, architects, and designers must ultimately achieve through real designs that work. While it will be challenging for many high performance buildings to achieve net zero energy consumption, innovative designs can help. This seminar explores strategies for smoothing some of the bumps on the road to net zero energy in several specific applications by coupling energy efficiency technology options with on-site, neighborhood, or regional renewable energy solutions.
