The Green Building Alliance will showcase 9 Net-Zero Energy Projects in Western Pennsylvania at a special event on June 27 at the Frick Environmental Center, 2005 Beechwood Boulevard in Pittsburgh from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m.

According to the New Buildings Institute Net-Zero Energy (also called Zero Net Energy) buildings are ultra-efficient new construction and deep energy retrofit projects that consume only as much energy as they produce from clean, renewable resources.

This involves a balance of energy demand reduction, incredible efficiency, and the addition of renewable energy sources.

The Pittsburgh region is rich with projects who have solved the NZE puzzle or are working to figure it out. Come learn from them, and enjoy food, drinks and networking after the program.

Projects featured in this showcase include:
