The Zero-Net Energy Building: Fact or Fiction?
Thursday, December 4th, 2008
A zero net building would generate enough renewable energy to meet its own energy needs. Clark Brockman, the director of SERA Architect’s Sustainability Resource Team, moderates the first meeting of a four-part series at the New York Academy of Sciences on how to achieve zero net energy in buildings. The speakers will discuss definitions of zero net energy buildings and ways to measure net energy. Participants of the discussion include Paul Schwer, President of PAE Consulting Engineers, Inc. and Paul Torcellini of National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
