The home was completed in late 2012 and is located in a rural neighborhood in the capital city of Concord, NH. It contains a total of 3,100SF of interior finished space on two at-grade levels. In addition to being a net-zero home, this green building project features multi-generational use and aging-in-place features as part of a sustainable design that incorporates long life cycle values.
The ROSE Cottage Project was the first single family home built as part of the private RCMZeroEnergy.com educational initiative to promote the use of the zero-net construction through a web-based contact with consumers, builders, and developers. Zero-net construction is also attainable on commercial, industrial and institutional projects where the larger economy of scale helps to decrease the additional cost/sf of the renewable energy features required to balance the total energy equation.
William A. Turner, PE, Sr. Vice President of Turner, commented: "If you look carefully at the new home construction industry, you will see many builders across the country who are already offering standardized models that are designed and built to be a zero net energy or near zero net energy home. If you are located within a region with only oil, propane or expensive electricity as your fuel options, investing in these new types of 'zero-net' homes is a really smart choice. Additionally, deep energy retrofit projects are occurring all across the country to save energy and annual operating expenses."
