A Zero Energy Home (ZEH) combines state-of-the-art, energy-efficient construction and appliances with commercially available renewable energy systems, such as solar water heating and solar electricity. The combination results in a home that produces its own energy — as much or more than it needs. Even though the home might be connected to a utility grid, it has net zero energy consumption from the utility provider.
