It is a home that does not require more energy to operate than it consumes. The home’s energy must be created in a sustainable way such as generating electricity and hot water though the use of solar power – photovoltaic and wind generators for electricity and solar thermal for hot water. The use of geothermal (ground source heat pump) technology will be used for heating and cooling. To minimize the amount of energy required to heat or cool a home, the structure would be designed with advanced, high‐performance building strategies and take advantage of passive heating and cooling design techniques. The home remains connected to the grid however when the electric production from photovoltaic wind generators exceeds electricity usage the electric meter turns backwards. When electricity usage exceeds production the electric meter turns forwards. The goal is; the net result will be zero.
