US to lead the zero energy homes market until 2025, report suggests

North America is likely to be the market leader in the Zero Net Energy Homes (ZNEH) segment until 2025, a recent research report from Navigant Research has been able to suggest.

California is leading the drive toward ZNEHs worldwide with its goal of 100% of newly constructed residential homes to be zero carbon by the beginning of 2020, it stated.

However, other US states and other countries in select regions, such as Europe and Asia Pacific, are also beginning to follow suit with zero carbon home initiatives and energy efficient building codes.

Both regions are expected grow quickly. ZNEH units in Europe are expected to grow from 185 in 2015 to more than 1,500 in 2025, the report added.

HeatingSave – the Home Energy Controller that helps you drive down carbon consumption levels

One of the most cost-effective methods to reduce the carbon consumption levels across any home is the installation of an intelligent heating control system, and this is exactly what HeatingSave is all about.

The HeatingSave House & Home smart computerised energy management system will optimize your energy consumption levels, allowing you to cut you heating bills by anywhere between 20% and 30%+. This is possible due to our advanced heat-loss algorithm that self-learns the heating characteristics of each heating zone within a home and can then work out how to run the heating system more efficiently.

Furthermore, the HeatingSave PC software will allow home owners to thoroughly manage heating patterns, the heating diary, and see where & when they’ve been using the highest amount of fuel/energy and C02 (using the Carbon Trust’s own conversion factors for all types of fuel).

With HeatingSave, you’ll be able to control exactly what you’re spending on energy, when and how, which will bring you a lot closer to the goal of owning a zero carbon, money saving home.
