Mar 24, 2026 - The Breakthroughs My Net Zero Home Is Missing



What I Got Wrong Building My Net Zero Home. I have some regrets. A few years ago, I set out to build my dream net zero energy home. I`ve been living here for a little over two years now, and so far, I`ve been more than satisfied. I have enough solar and battery storage to balance out all of my annual energy use. A highly efficient geothermal heating and cooling system supplies me with hot water for almost no money. And this is the most comfortable and energy efficient home I`ve ever lived in. Overall, I absolutely love this house. But even the best laid plans have issues, and mine were no different. If you want to avoid expensive mistakes, learn what actually works in a net zero home, or just see what tech lived up to the hype, there might be some lessons you can learn from the choices I made … and the ones that I didn`t make.
