Zero-Energy Plans, LLC is the leading provider of proven Energy Efficient home designs to mainstream builders and do-it-yourselfers worldwide. Each of the High Performance Home Designs available through this site will use less than half the energy of a home built to the 2006 IECC, and have roof plans allowing sufficient south facing space for at least 3 KW of photovoltaic solar panels.  Most importantly, they are very affordable, with styling just like any other home.  Every home built to these plans is qualified under the IRS Tax Code Section 1332, Credit for Construction of New Energy Efficient Homes of the Energy Policy Act of 2005.  This important Tax Credit has been renewed through 2011.

We are now offering PROVEN home plans that are so efficient they will not only power themselves, they will also power your car.  Imagine living a completely carbon-free life!  Break out of the oil-dominated society, and live your life the way you want, in full control of your own energy destiny! 

Most people will spend twice as much on energy for their house and car over the life of a thirty-year mortgage as they spend on the initial purchase of their house! One of our Positive NRG Homes™ can provide all the energy you ever need for the car and the house.  In effect, you could have your HOUSE for FREE!

Download our FREE Heating Cost Calculator (Excel File)
This extraordinary calculator allows you to enter your actual fuel prices, and compare side-by-side the cost of using different fuels, at different efficiency ratings, to heat your home. We are starting to see other calculators that do what ours do, some even better than ours, but we were the first to offer the honest side-by-side comparison of different fuel types and equipment types.
Zero-Energy Home Plans is now offering High Performance Energy Remodel plans for existing homes.   For now we will only be able to offer this service on or near Whidbey Island, Washington, but we hope to have people trained across the country to perform this service within the next (2012) year.  We can turn typical homes built between 1950 and 1985 into models of energy efficiency, using less than half the energy of today's new code-built homes.

What is a Positive NRG™ Home?
A Positive NRG™ Home will produce more energy over the course of a year than it uses.  It is our goal that our newer designs will not only power themselves, but will also provide enough surplus energy to power your electric car.  Three of our Positive NRG™ Home plans have already been built, and are meeting or exceeding expectations!  Order one of our Positive NRG™ Home plans today, and help us make this the "normal" was to build a new home!
