Lake City, Colo., July 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

Join Green Builder Media on Wednesday, July 17 at 2:00 ET for a free webinar on building net zero energy ready homes at an affordable pricepoint. 

Howard Building Science is building beautiful net zero energy ready homes in Granite Falls, N.C., for around $200,000. Called Duke Street Cottages, these are not bare-bones homes. They are part of a pocket neighborhood of 11 homes built to the DOE Zero Energy Ready Home standard.

The homes are constructed with structural insulated panels, cement fiber board siding, ductless mini-split heat pumps, heat pump water heaters, heat pump dryers, induction ranges, and other high-efficiency appliances. They are:

  • Affordable to buy and to own with near zero maintenance and utility bills.
  • Foster sustainable community living with shared green space and a solar pavilion.
  • Provide healthy indoor air quality with high-efficiency filtration and ventilation.

These incredibly high-value homes are the future of the housing industry. In this webinar, Rob Howard, President of Howard Building Science, will discuss his company's unique solutions for optimizing housing—offering concrete ideas you can apply to your homes and communities.
