Description

Housing is a major contributor to CO2 emissions in Europe and America today and the construction of new homes offers an opportunity to address this issue. Providing homes that achieve "zero carbon", "carbon neutral", "zero-net energy" or "energy-plus" standards is becoming the goal of more innovative house-builders globally, whilst energy providers seek to decarbonate the energy supply to new and existing development.

This book explores the diverse approaches that are being adopted around the world to delivering zero carbon homes and the different societal systems and geographical circumstances in which they have developed. It postulates a road-map for delivering zero carbon homes, together with a toolkit for policy-makers and practitioners to suit particular national and local circumstances.
