The CSI-IDEA Building makes use of passive design, including its unique shape, to reduce the overall energy load. Solar thermal energy generated on site provides heat, with a design that ensures ...

Getting to net zero includes integrating grid-sensitive design features to optimize the interactions between buildings and the utility grid. Virtually any building type can be zero-energy.

Net Zero Energy (NZE) buildings, which generate about as much new renewable energy as they consume, could be part of the answer to reversing the steady buildup of greenhouse gases generated by ...

Each commercial and residential building employs a unique blend of renewable energy and architectural design to reach net zero, but there are some characteristics that nearly every structure shares.

A net-zero building – which consumes only as much energy as it produces – is better for the planet, but there's still resistance to the green concept. CNA speaks to experts about why these ...

Net-zero energy buildings are the exception rather than the norm. But this design firm is hoping to change that.

Given the constraints of current technology and the comfort demands of building users, is zero energy a worthwhile investment for buildings in, for example, a warm, humid climate? To answer these ...

‘Zero-Carbon Buildings’ are not an efficient use of resources. At the scale of a single building, especially a house, renewable energy generation is expensive and inefficient use of materials ...

You'd never suspect while driving by that the red and white building at 3612 Lafayette Road will soon be green all over.
