Net Zero Homes: Why it's easy to build one now!
NREL Special Presentation Lecture Series
A Net Zero Energy home produces as much energy over one year as it uses. With recent advances in technology and construction techniques, it is not as hard to reach this goal as some might think. By lowering the energy usage of a home through passive solar design, high levels of insulation, and energy efficient systems, coupled with photovoltaic panels producing electricity on site, we can design a NZE home today. Peter Ewers will show several NZE homes designed by his firm, Ewers Architecture, and share some of the lessons learned through the design and construction process. Come hear what to do, what not to do, and what might be coming in the future for NZE homes.
Peter Ewers has more than 30 years’ experience designing a variety of residential and commercial projects. He has been a licensed architect for 27 years, practicing in Colorado for the past 23 years. Peter founded Ewers Architecture in 1998. Peter is an advocate for sustainable design through speaking engagements at venues including the World Renewable Energy Forum, AIA 2030 Challenge classes, NREL Special Presentation Lecture Series, and more
