The high cost of energy and lumber combined with an increasing awareness of a changing global climate is a driving force behind the trend towards more energy-efficient construction and remodeling projects. 

​

Zero Net Energy home construction is a movement that is quickly taking off and it starts with an energy-efficient building envelope using ICF (insulated concrete forms) to help keep the energy consumption of the home as low as possible. 

​

Residential and commercial buildings account for nearly 40% of the nation’s total energy demand and roughly 74% of all electricity use in the United States and an even greater share of peak power demand in some regions.  (Source:  Energy.gov)
