The spring 2023 issue of Passive House Accelerator magazine has sprung, and we are championing decarbonization!

You’ll also find Mark Attard’s insightful article about living through the 2021 Marshall Fire and the real-world benefits of a Passive House retrofit, Lisa White’s in-depth piece on grid-interactive efficiency buildings, and a fascinating study by Skylar Swinford and Zack Semke that focuses on the upfront carbon costs of high-performance building.
