SUMMARY:Delayed until further notice: How to Cost Effectively Build Zero Energy Homes - Bend
DESCRIPTION:Updated March 19\, 2020: Delayed until further notice\nPlease let us know if you are interested in a training that has been postponed due to COVID-19 and may be rescheduled and/or potentially made available online.To receive updates regarding this and other postponed trainings please fill out this interest form. \nJoin EEBA (Energy & Environmental Building Alliance) and Earth Advantage for this 1-day training and learn how to eliminate common barriers to Zero Energy (ZE) home construction\, benefit from the rapid trend towards ZE\, and earn a ‘Zero Energy Builder’ designation.\nZero Energy (ZE) homes are a big part of the future of home building business. While the materials and equipment to reach zero energy are available\, designers and builders must create a bundle of energy-efficiency features that matches their climate\, customers\, and business constraints. \nThis 7-hour class lays out numerous elements of zero energy design and construction\, so that building professionals can formulate a package appropriate for their situation. There is no one-size-fits-all solution. Participants in this class will learn design principles\, equipment options\, emerging technologies\, material selections\, and construction practices that can be integrated into their building process. Strong emphasis is placed on ways to make the final product affordable for homebuyers. Sales and marketing ideas\, as well as localized resources\, builder spotlights\, programs and next steps will also be presented. \n‘Zero Energy Builder’ Designation \nParticipants will have the opportunity to earn EEBA’s ‘Zero Energy Builder’ designation and be listed on EEBA & EA registries of accredited professionals. To earn the designation\, attendees must pass a designation exam and have completed and passed one of the following prerequisite trainings (or sets of trainings): EA’s Sustainable Homes Professional (SHP); EA’s Sustainable Building Essentials; EEBA’s HERS Associate & Taking the Performance Path + Houses That Work + High Performance Mechanicals. \n12 Steps to Affordable Zero Energy Design & Construction \nIt’s generally accepted that improvements to the thermal envelope are fundamental. These include high levels of insulation\, reduction of thermal bridges and advanced air sealing. However\, significant efficiency improvements in heating and cooling equipment and the rapid drop in the cost of rooftop solar electric systems offer new options for cost-effective efficiency packages. There have never been so many ZE options to choose from. This course gives building professionals the knowledge to build ZE homes that are affordable\, durable\, safe\, healthy\, energy efficient\, and comfortable to live in. \nThe training material is organized into 12 easy steps: \n\nStart with Smart Design\nOrient for Sun Tempering\nOptimize with Energy Modeling\nSuper-seal the Envelope\nSuper-insulate the Envelope\nSelect Optimum Window Efficiency\nEnsure Clean\, Fresh Air\nSpecify High-performance Heating and Cooling\nHeat Water Wisely\nSelect High-Efficiency Lighting\nChoose Efficient Appliances\nUse Renewable Energy\n\nEach step describes the most recent developments with a strong emphasis on affordability. Other topics include: housing market drivers\, ways to assess and communicate economic benefits\, available incentives\, along with marketing and sales concepts for ZE homes. \n\nAttendees will: \n\nIdentify factors that are driving the U.S. housing market toward ZE\nName barriers to the widespread adoption of ZE homes\nDescribe three ways to present the financial benefits of ZE homes\nList six affordable ZE features that you can incorporate into your practice\nBe invited to bring house specs and evaluate possible advancements along the 12 steps to ZE\nCreate a marketing and sales messages that your company can use to promote ZE homes\nLearn about available Energy Trust EPS incentives through their just released Net Zero and Energy Smart Home offerings\n\n\nCredits: 7 CEs for AIA\, NAHB\, NARI\, NATE\, CCB and OREA; 0.7 for ICC; 5 for RESNET\, 3.5 for BPI \nCost: $49 (Regularly $175) \nAudience: Building industry professionals (builders\, raters\, architects\, HVAC\, subcontractors\, utility representatives & code officials) \nInstructor: Bruce Sullivan of BASE zero\, LLC \nQuestions? Contact hkendall@earthadvantage.org or 503-968-7160 x20. \nThis training made possible thanks to:
