Super-efficient. Carbon-neutrality within reach.
Today.
This is the slogan of The Passive House Institute US (PHIUS), a consulting and research firm working to further the implementation of Passive House standards and techniques nationwide, which is much more evident throughout Europe at this time.
PHIUS has developed software and tools to aid in this effort along with a Passive House certification to award projects that meet their strict energy efficiency standards.
I'm heading to the location of the first multi-family passivhaus in February - I'll take pictures.
