Net Zero Technical Committee

The role of the Net Zero Technical Committee (TC) is to assist the CHBA Net Zero Energy Housing Council (NZC) in an advisory capacity to review, consider and make recommendations on the development and implementation of the Net Zero Home Labelling Program. The TC holds monthly meetings to support the ongoing development of the Program Requirements, including the development and alignment of new applications of the Program, such as Renovations, Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), MURBs/Mid-density and neighbourhoods. The committee reviews all proposed Change Requests submitted by CHBA members and determines which should be approved.
