FMI ZERO

FMI Zero Energy (FMI ZE) An FMI Zero Energy (FMI ZE) home produces as much renewable energy from solar panels on its roof as its occupants consume over the course of a year. It achieves this net zero balance via a highly energy-efficient building envelope combined with the most fit-forpurpose appliances. An FMI Zero Energy Ready home (FMI ZER) is an FMI ZE home without the solar panels. Depending on technology and local incentives, surplus energy from the roof may be sold to the grid or stored.
