Green 302 | NetZero is Smart, Cool and our Future ... The ECOnomics work

WHY #NetZeroEnergy?





We need to do our part as 7.9 million people are currently devouring 1.6 plants at a time when our planet is heading to 11 Billion people by 2100. The building industry is responsible for 40% of greenhouse gases, 50% of extracted material use and 1/3 of our energy use.

  1. Understand why we can have higher performance at less cost 
  2. How to design affordable NetZero building projects

Introduction Video

There is no excuse for not going NetZero energy as the ECOnomics work. We can build commercial NetZero energy building like the Mosaic Center at no additional cost and Net Zero homes like mine at 1602 Edward Avenue in Saskatoon that provide a positive return on investment.
In this two-hour work shop, you will participate in discussions on systems and strategies for affordable NetZero living.

  • Rob Dumont's Recipe for High Performance Homes in a Northern Climate 
  • Lesson Learned on EcoSmart #Prebab #Green and the Blue Herron Haus 
  • Lessons Learned on the Green Builder Passive House project 
  • Choosing by Advantages: Smart Wall, Double Wall or 2x6 + 6 
  • Why all the Stuff I learned about Passive Design could be Wrong | Tree Hugger 
  • Affordable Not-So-Big Positive Cash Flow Entry Level NetZero Home 

The work shop will conclude with a discussion on how collaboration and integration can be used to deliver higher performance at less cost.
