Free Class:
Planning a Zero Energy New or Existing Home in California
Lake County Energy Watch will present
a free class designed to educate attendees (intended for
architects, builders, home performance contractors, designers,
engineers and utility staff) on “Planning a Zero Energy New or
Existing Home in California.”
The concept of a net Zero Energy Home (ZEH) is to reduce
electrical loads to the point that the home's photovoltaic system
annually supplies as much electricity to the utility grid as the
home uses. Not only does it require a clear understanding of the
climate, building enclosure and internal loads, but the house
also must be monitored upon completion to evaluate its actual
performance.
Planning
a Zero Energy New or Existing Home in California” will be held
Thursday, July 21, 2011 from
9
a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at The Lodge at Blue
Lakes, 5135 Hwy 20 in Upper Lake. Registration
