Apr. 16, 2012 - Global Information Inc. is pleased to announce three significant new reports from Pike Research dealing with the shifting green construction market, including a 20 year forecast for zero energy buildings, a 10 year forecast for the residential combined heat and power systems market, and a 10 year forecast for trends in global building stock.

As green building practices become more commonplace in the global construction industry, the goal of designing zero energy buildings, or buildings that consume only as much energy as they produce through on-site and renewable energy systems, has emerged as the next major frontier. A number of countries and regions have already established long-term targets and regulations that will require zero energy building construction that will come into effect over the coming years, some as soon as 2016. As a result, the construction industry as a whole, led by HVAC vendors, real estate developers, construction companies, as well as renewable energy developers, are in the process of developing products and service lines that will meet demand for zero energy building and ensure compliance with new regulations. read more>>>
