About the talk:

Montreal architect Sevag Pogharian is pushing the borders of net zero buildings by creating the Alstonvale Net Zero House, one of the Winning Projects in Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation's EQuilibrium (TM) Sustainable Housing Demonstration Initiative. The Alstonvale Home strives to:

- generate all the energy required for the household's domestic needs
- generate all the energy required for the household's local transportation needs;
- integrate homescale agriculture in order to displace the industrial food system and enhance a household's food energy balance

Mr. Pogharian will share his experience creating the Alstonvale Net Zero House and discuss ways in which this project may serve as a model to advance net zero builiding practices in Canada.
