ZEB IS A KEY CONTRIBUTOR TO THE NATIONAL GREEN SHIFT

Fredrik Shetelig
Chairman ZEB | Dean NTNU

When ZEB started its work, we were building upon a strong history of research and experimentation in the ield of sustainable buildings, but we
were actually a little uncertain if the ambitious goals we had formulated were achievable within the lifespan of the ZEB-program. As the Centre
enters its last full year as an FME, we have demonstrated, using research-based innovation, that it is technically and economically feasible to
build zero emission buildings. The size and number of the demonstration projects has exceeded our expectations, and this could never have
happened without the ambition, spirit, and lexibility of our industry partners. Our society is at this very moment in the middle of a paradigm shift,
formulated by the Norwegian government as “the Green Shift – climate- and environmentally friendly restructuring”. ZEB is a key contributor to
the Green Shift in the building industry, and we will spend the FME-centre’s last year fulilling our research goals and continuing our contribution
to society by persisting in disseminating a large number of research results. The next step is to raise the level of complexity and develop
research-based zero emission solutions on a neighborhood- and urban scale.
Stay tuned!
