What is zero energy building
Self-sufficiency, the use of hydropower air conditioning with their own garbage generated by the re-use of energy, or the use of solar energy,
The so-called "zero-energy" housing is mainly through the best overall design, the use of the most advanced building materials and has been listed on energy-saving equipment, to achieve the energy needed for housing or electricity 100% self-produced goals. First of all, the architects have a longer life, lower energy consumption of small fluorescent lamps instead of incandescent lamps, with better ability to reduce the air between the walls and the ceiling of the cellulose instead of the ordinary energy-saving housing pink glass fiber insulator. In addition, other improvements include the use of vinyl window frame to increase the window closed, sealed pipes and in the roof under the installation of thermal radiation solar panels and other solar panels. Through these methods can reduce the energy consumption of housing. However, to really achieve the average energy consumption is zero, but also in a small amount of high-end computer equipment has been invested.
It seems that there is no such thing, and now only a single energy "zero energy", such as the use of solar energy or wind power to replace the power plant to send electricity, to achieve electricity "zero energy"; the use of rain after filtration into the water as a wash Rinse with the "water zero energy consumption"
