Zero net energy homes in North America expected to reach 27,000 in 2025, says Navigant

As residential building codes call for greater energy efficiency, and the use of onsite generation for grid load management becomes more valuable, the market for zero net energy homes (ZNEHs) is emerging. Near- ZNE and ZNE-ready homes are also becoming increasingly accepted as builders make more effort to offer enhanced efficiency options and satisfy energy-conscious consumers. According to a new report from Navigant Research, total ZNEHs in North America are expected to grow from 750 in 2015 to nearly 27,000 in 2025.
