Equilibruim: Net Zero Projects
Equilibrium is a demonstration initiative that aims to build net zero homes across Canada, meaning each home is designed to produce as much energy as it consumes through heat, light, and power. Ryan Scott and Chris Mattock will discuss the equilibrium projects they're involved with and how they hope to achieve net zero energy.
