Net Zero Energy (NZE) refers to a building or facility that produces as much energy as it consumes over a specific period, typically a year. This balance is achieved through energy-efficient design, renewable energy sources like solar panels or wind turbines, and smart energy management practices. The goal of NZE is to minimize reliance on fossil fuels and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to a more sustainable future. By generating clean energy on-site, NZE buildings can help combat climate change while providing comfortable living and working environments for occupants.
