What is a Zero Energy House? A house whose functions require very little energy and often have zero net energy due to power production.

How do they do this? Rely on natural resources Climate specific design Passive solar heating and cooling Energy efficient construction Newly developed technologies

Benefits Improved comfort Reliability Security Environmentally sustainable Very small electricity bill
