About Zero Energy Buildings

Zero energy buildings use a combination of energy efficiency and renewable energy to produce as much energy as they use over the course of a year. By creating their own renewable energy, zero energy buildings lower operating and maintenance costs, help the environment, and increase resiliency during power outages.

Net zero energy buildings: A consistent definition framework

The topic of zero energy buildings (ZEBs) has received increasing attention in recent years, until becoming part of the energy policy in several countries. In the recast of the EU Directive on Energy Performance of Buildings (EPBD) it is specified that by the end of 2020 all new buildings shall be "nearly zero energy buildings" [1].
