Net Zero Energy Housing: Life Without Energy Costs

To produce as much energy as it consumes, a net zero energy house should use sophisticated techniques and boast excellent build quality. With a low energy requirement design, renewable energy system and effective use of the house, these houses are practically energy autonomous!

Many advanced technologies are used in the construction of these innovative houses:

  • Solar energy: 146 photovoltaic solar panels are installed on the roof to retrieve the sun’s rays to heat rooms and water tanks
  • Superior insulation: the materials chosen for the construction of the house promote superior insulation and sealing
  • Natural sources of shade and light: abundant fenestration lets the sunshine flow in whereas solar screens are used to create shade and natural cooling spaces

Advantages of net zero energy housing

  • Lower electricity costs
  • Optimal comfort at all seasons
  • Environmentally friendly lifestyle
  • Sustainable
