This 1975 bungalow retrofit added major efficiency upgrades, and in its first year, the solar PV system generated more energy than the home used.

Fellow Canadian founders, what are you doing in these times? I’ve been investing in R&D, creating new ways to accelerate #passivedesign
#deepretrofits and #greenbuilding certifications. What are you up to?
With the program now at its midpoint, the BDA released a report this week that traces its progress to date and inventories more than 70 specific tools developed by accelerator initiatives across the country.
#DeepRetrofits
It should be illegal to use gas boilers in commercial buildings across Canada.
With the withdrawal of the Consumer Carbon Tax the business case for natural gas just got brighter (ugh!!).
We will never meet out GHG reduction targets if we keep using them.

ANOTHER case study from Calgary builder Solar Homes Inc.!
Thanks to a #netzeroready retrofit, all about boosting comfort and cutting energy use, this bungalow sips energy instead of guzzling it.
