The Zero Energy Buildings Database features profiles of commercial buildings that produce as much energy as they use over the course of a year. Learn more about the types of zero energy buildings. This database highlights projects from across the country and provides ideas that can be applied to any new building.

The Zero Energy Buildings Database is part of the High Performance Buildings Database which lists many additional projects. Visit the High Performance Buildings Database to discover more energy efficient building techniques.

To find out more about the zero energy buildings listed below, simply click the name of a project to view in-depth information about the design and construction process, financing, energy use, materials, indoor environment, and more.
