Zero energy doesn't mean a house uses no energy, it means the house combines on-site power generation with efficient structural materials to return a net zero utility cost. By producing green energy and avoiding fossil fuel consumption we create a living space that leaves little or no carbon footprint.

The H.R Weaver Building team has been researching and designing the ZERO ENERGY HOME for nine months based on a theory that the home could be heated by a light bulb. The result was a plan for a 2,300-square-foot home with 15 rooms and a two-car garage nestled on a 5-acre lot.
