VEIC’s work on Zero Energy Modular (ZEM) homes has helped hundreds of low income families achieve dignified, resilient, low-carbon housing. Over the past decade, we’ve partnered with five factories and countless funding partners and lending institutions to make this happen. The need is growing, not fading—for workforce housing, farm worker housing, mobile home replacement, affordable housing communities, and more. The problem? The ZEM model does not scale well within the current paradigm. Building on our experience in this challenging market, we present a compelling vision for where the New England market goes from here.
