Why is a PeaPod Home considered an ideal platform for zero net energy?
Since almost 75% of your home’s energy is spent on heating and cooling, the more you can minimize that amount, the less renewable energy you will have to install to meet those demands. For instance, if you estimate that your house would require 10-15 KW of PV, you can reduce that cost to around 2.5 – 4 KW’s of PV. At today’s PV pricing levels of approx. $5,000 per kilowatt, that can add up to as much as $50,000 in savings.
