The Passive House is the building standard of the future
For many years Passive Houses have proved successful both as new constructions and as refurbishments. From 2021, all new buildings must meet the provisions of the “Nearly Zero Energy Building” (NZEB) in accordance with the EU Buildings Directive (EPBD). The Passive House is the basis for this.

Skilled trades companies that have experience with Passive Houses will be able to benefit from the new business opportunities that are thus provided.
