1. MY ZERO HOME ENERGY

WHAT IS NET ZERO HOME?
ZERO ENERGY BUILDING VERSUS GREEN BUILDING
Net-zero simply means that a home produces as much energy as it
consumes. Net zero homes minimize energy use through efficiency and meet
remaining needs through renewable energy systems.
The goal of green building and sustainable architecture is to use resources
more efficiently and reduce a building's negative impact on the
environment.Zero energy buildings achieve one key green-building goal of
completely or very significantly reducing energy use and greenhouse gas
emissions for the life of the building.

I Go green
We can reduce our home's carbon footprint without the hassle of changing
your lifestyle. Creating a more energy-efficient home is one step that can
help ease the effects of global warming. This home has had solar panels
installed to harness the sun's energy to help power the home.

CONCLUSION
In summary, in 2013 for all uses of electricity in the house, including the
energy used to operate the heat pump used for geothermal production was
approximately 2480 kW (representing the total annual requirement of the
house) of which 1840 kW and 650 kW withdrawn from the network selfproduced and consumed directly (ie about 38% of consumption is covered
directly by the production).
The self total electricity from photovoltaics was 3423 kW, except that
consumed directly during the hours of daylight (650 kW), was introduced
into the network for an amount equal to 2773 kW. The self has resulted in
savings of about 325 kg / yr of CO2 compared to the energy needs of the
house that would have been 1244 kg / year.
The savings in terms of total CO2 emissions through self-production of PV
was 1725 kg / year.
