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.

FMI Zero Carbon (FMI ZC)

Over its lifetime, an FMI Zero Carbon (FMI ZC) house generates enough surplus renewable energy from its roof to cover not only the operational needs of the occupants but also to offset all the embodied carbon in its construction and ongoing repair and maintenance. The offset also covers embodied carbon in the solar panels and fittings.

Strategies to minimise embodied carbon in the FMI ZC house include initial design, low carbon and durable materials selection, and avoiding construction waste.

FMI Zero Waste (FMI ZW)

Embodied carbon is wasted throughout the life cycle that builds, maintains, and eventually dismantles a house. An FMI Zero Waste (FMI ZW) house construction site reduces embodied carbon by sending nothing to landfill. Instead, it • REUSES leftover materials in subsequent construction.

• RECYCLES packaging and leftover materials back to building suppliers, and favours suppliers who can offer this service.

• RETURNS TO NATURE provided materials are non-harmful and organic.
