The Zero Energy Building (ZEB) Standard is a building certification that indicates a building has achieved a net-zero energy balance, meaning it generates as much energy as it consumes annually. This is typically achieved through a combination of energy-efficient design, high-performance insulation, renewable energy systems, and smart energy management technologies. The ZEB Standard is used globally to measure and recognize the energy performance of both residential and commercial buildings, and aims to promote sustainable building practices and reduce carbon emissions.
