The GreenHome Institute’s – The State of Net Zero Housing 2023: Inventory of Zero Report

April 12, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EDT

About this event

EEBA Team Zero started tracking the proliferation of U.S. and Canadian ZE homes in 2015. Since then, the yearly report has shown a consistent upward trend. In the past, the multifamily sector led the pack. In the 2022 report, we see single family homes making up the majority for the first time. The report tracks Zero Energy single and multifamily home trends and leaders across the U.S. and Canada, and shows 190% in growth in total projects as well as 440% growth in single family houses.
