My guest on this episode is Katrin Klingenberg, the Executive Director of Phius. Phius is a non-profit organization committed to decarbonizing the built environment by making high-performance passive building the mainstream market standard. They are mainly active in USA with some international projects.
In this episode we discuss:
- Why passive design principles need to be adapted to different climate zones - and how Phius has done this in their standards.
- The role of passive design in net zero carbon.
- How passive design is becoming mainstream in the USA and what else needs to be done to achieve this.
