Proposed Session Description
In this presentation, I will describe in detail the approach used by Passive House teams to easily and repeatedly implement Passive House. Reducing the energy load and carbon output of the built environment is imperative to addressing the climate crisis, and Passive House provides the tools necessary to make this happen. Both through the experience of our projects and those throughout North America, there is a pattern that successful Passive House teams follow, regardless of project size or type. This systematic approach allows Passive House building to become scalable at the level needed to address climate change without sacrificing quality.
Why is this session important?
As a Passive House professional, understanding how to build a Passive House is only the first step in shifting building trends towards high-performance construction. Understanding the skills to make the process scalable is the key ingredient to reaching current climate goals.
Learning Objectives
Participants will be able to better communicate with clients and builders to encourage adoption of Passive House methods in their projects.
Participants will be able to utilize strategies that make Passive House scalable and lower risks via consultants and Passive House Certification.
Participants will be able to develop systems to further the spread of Passive House throughout North America as a viable method of addressing climate change.
Participants will be able to address embodied carbon and strive to achieve net-zero energy via Passive House measures.
