Quickly moving into the mainstream of design and construction, the Passive House standard is proving its reputation for quality construction, energy savings, improved comfort, and healthy indoor air quality – all while ensuring the durability of the building with minimal or no additional upfront cost. When coupled with small renewable energy systems, Passive House puts true zero-energy, low-carbon buildings within reach. Whether wanting to understand and apply the basic principles or to grasp the big picture before taking advanced courses, this introductory class will provide the fundamentals of the Passive House standard.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn the benefits and economics of Passive House, as applicable to residential and non-residential projects
- Understand the Passive House design standards and how they can be applied to a variety of projects
