Creating Demand for Zero Energy

The Net-Zero Energy Coalition (NZEC) recently published “To Zero and Beyond: Zero Energy Residential Buildings Study,” an inventory of residential single- and multi-family buildings on the path to zero energy (give or take) in Canada and the U.S. The goals of the study were, first, to understand the order of magnitude of the market, and then to provide a baseline for measuring growth and trends moving forward.

For the first part join Ann Edminster and Shilpa Sankaran from NZEC, along with zero energy market leaders to learn more about the trends, why industry leaders are not waiting for home buyers to realize this $1.3 trillion market, and how their success is driving greater projected growth. Pt 2 features an industry professional who has done this at the development level and brings us through a real case study of successfully hitting zero energy in a small community.

Lessons Learned

Understand basic data about the zero energy residential market in Canada and the U.S.

Learn about the trends behind the data
