Utilizing the Net Zero Plus Electrical Training Institute facility (one of the largest net zero commercial retrofits in the United States) as a dynamic case study, this presentation provides a roadmap to achieving zero net energy (ZNE) including discussion on the research, design strategies, and engineering processes that maximize energy efficiency and reduce consumption and costs. The presenter also discusses renewable energy systems and advanced technologies including microgrid systems paired with battery energy storage and measurement and verification (M&V) systems for achieving and maintaining ZNE status. Discussions also include various ZNE financing mechanisms and rebates.
