March 28 Webinar: Peter Amerongen on Zero Energy Building’s Affordability and Future

How does a homebuilder build a Net Zero Energy or Net Zero Energy ready home? Many of the details can be addressed in design and having the right design team. Building Envelope Optimization allows building at the lowest costs by maximizing efficiency and minimizes mechanical systems. This 2-hour webinar will start with the premise that those in attendance will have a background in building and building science and have a basic understanding of energy certification like Alaska’s 5- and 6-Star homes or Canadian R-2000 homes which have been in play over the last 25 years. Peter will cover how to achieve high building efficiency so that a small unit heater or new options like mini split heat pumps can be used. Finally can a Professional Home builder incorporate NZE as part of his offerings, and have an affordable plan. More info: sjnowers@mtaonline.net or 229.1982
