Abstract

The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Building America team, Consortium for Residential Buildings (CARB), is working with the EcoVillage cohousing community in Ithaca, New York, on the Third Residential EcoVillage Experience neighborhood. This community-scale project consists of 40 housing units-15 apartments and 25 single-family residences. Units range in size from 450 ft2 to 1,664 ft2 and cost from $80,000 for a studio apartment to $235,000 for a three- or four-bedroom single-family home. The community is pursuing certifications for DOE Zero Energy Ready Home, U.S. Green Building Council Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Gold, and ENERGY STAR for the entire project. Additionally, seven of the 25 homes, along with the four-story apartment building and community center, are being constructed to the Passive House (PH) design standard.

This is a repository for all NorthernSTAR Zero Energy Ready certified homes. Amaris Homes Model Home - St. Paul, MN 55110 Description: Model home completed September 2013 The DOE Zero Energy Ready Home Case Study looks to study and eventually design zero net energy homes in cold weather climates. These zero net energy homes are referred to as challenge homes. For this challenge home, Amaris Homes is working with the DOE in St. Paul, Minnesota. The household located at MN 55110 acts as the Amaris Challenge Home Test. The resources include technical drawings including siding, roofing and Windows. Christian Buildersmore »« less
Modular Zero Energy Ready Homes: Bright Built - Maine

Dataset Aldrich, Robb ; Butterfield, Karla

Kaplan Thompson Architects (KTA) has specialized in sustainable, energy-efficient buildings, and they have designed several custom, zero-energy homes in New England. These zero-energy projects have generally been high-end, custom homes with budgets that could accommodate advanced energy systems. In an attempt to make zero energy homes more affordable and accessible to a larger demographic, KTA explored modular construction as way to provide high-quality homes at lower costs. In mid-2013, KTA formalized this concept when they launched BrightBuilt Home (BBH). The BBH mission is to offer "a line of architect-designed, high-performance homes that are priced to offer substantial savings off themore »« less
