Libraries across the country on a mission to contribute to a greener future by committing to net-zero energy use.

Facilitate collaborative research aimed at widespread adoption of optimized net-zero energy building (NZEB) design and operation concepts in key regions of Canada by 2030. Consolidate Concordia’s ...

has broken new ground in the design of net-zero buildings. Its long, narrow shape allows for sunlight to penetrate every space, thereby reducing the need for artificial lighting, and driving down the ...

The LEED system is an international green building rating system ... It was important for the engineer to make his home "zero energy," meaning net zero and carbon neutral. It produces enough ...

In addition to being a marvel of energy-efficient design, the building is on track to achieve its net-zero energy target by 2021. The energy concept of the Varennes library was partly conceived under ...

Researchers at Politecnico di Torino in Italy are testing how latent heat thermal storage (LHTS) could be used in combination with rooftop PV to achieve nearly zero-energy buildings (NZEB).

Net-zero buildings must be powered by electricity, use renewable energy from the grid and/or onsite generation, have the ability to store energy or shift energy use to reduce peak demand on the energy ...
