Employee Owned Cooperative
Zero Energy Homes will be democratically owned and operated as an employee-owned cooperative. Check out Start.coop to learn about cooperatives and how they are changing the world for good. One in three Americans is a member of a coop!
Our Design
A net zero energy home produces more electricity than it uses. Net zero energy is achieved by a tight thermal envelope, efficient heat and other mechanical systems, and generating solar energy with an onsite array or through a share in a community solar farm. Residents enjoy low or no utility bills all year long.
