From Energy Rebates to Net Zero House

Fixbid is an effortless way to experience its benefits

About Net Zero House

Net Zero House is designed to produce as much energy as it consumes, which is achieved through a combination of energy-efficient design features and the use of renewable energy sources.

These homes are an important part of the movement towards a more sustainable future and can help homeowners reduce their carbon footprint while enjoying the benefits of a comfortable and efficient living space.

California’s Energy Commission has set a goal for all new residential construction to be Net Zero Energy by 2020, and has established energy efficiency standards for buildings through the California Energy Code. The state has also implemented a number of programs to promote Net Zero Homes, such as the Zero Net Energy Homes program, which provides incentives and technical assistance to builders and homeowners who are interested in constructing Net Zero Homes.

To achieve net-zero energy status, a house must be designed and built with several features that promote energy efficiency, such as:

Solar Panels

A Net Zero House typically includes solar panels that are installed on the roof to harness the energy of the sun and convert it into electricity. This renewable energy source is used to power the home and, when there is excess energy, it is stored in batteries for later use.

Insulation

The insulation in a Net Zero House is designed to be highly effective in reducing energy consumption.

This is achieved by using materials that have high thermal resistance to prevent heat transfer between the inside and outside of the home.

High-Efficiency Windows

Windows are an important part of a Net Zero House as they allow natural light to enter the home and can provide ventilation. However, the windows must be designed with energy efficiency in mind, such as using multiple panes, low-E coatings, and gas fills to reduce heat transfer.

Upgrade Electricity Management

Started with LED bulbs replacement that consume less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs.

Now Energy-Efficient Appliances are designed to consume less energy than traditional appliances.

Also, newly developed Smart Electrical Panel and battery storage deveices will gear up achieving Net Zero Home

Air-Sealing

The building envelope of a Net Zero House must be tightly sealed to prevent air leaks, which can cause heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. This is achieved by using specialized insulation materials and sealing all gaps and cracks in the building envelope.

Houses use energy-efficient appliances that are designed to consume less energy than traditional appliances. These appliances are typically labeled with the ENERGY STAR rating to help homeowners identify them.

Ventilation

A Net Zero House is designed to be well-ventilated to maintain indoor air quality and reduce the risk of moisture buildup. This is achieved by using a heat recovery ventilator, which circulates fresh air into the home while recovering heat from the exhaust air.

Even without knowledge of various programs, you can take full advantage of benefits such as rebates and tax reductions with our assistance

As part of the trend towards net-zero houses, we can help you take advantage of the BayREN program and its benefits

BayREN offers a range of services and incentives to help homeowners, renters, businesses, and municipalities reduce their energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

These services include energy assessments, financing options, rebates, and technical assistance.

However, many people give up on receiving the benefits of such programs because there are too many difficult tasks to complete, such as document preparation, product selection, and finding the right contractors for the job according to predetermined regulations.

To address this problem, Fixbid has created an Energy Rebate Menu solution that understands these difficulties and can resolve all the necessary procedures with just a simple service request.

To take advantage of “Energy Rebate” Menu, simply download the Fixbid app and submit a service request.
