An exciting new zero net energy housing development at the University of California, Davis is currently underway. Described as the largest ZNE development of its kind in the U.S., the college's West Village is a 130-acre, mixed-used development with apartment housing for 2,000 students, an education center for Los Rios Community College, recreation and study facilities, a village square surrounded by retail, and 343 single-family homes for sale to faculty and staff.
The highlight of the project is a four-megawatt high efficiency solar system designed to produce 100 percent of the electricity requirements for the entire community.
The site recently welcomed officials, including California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, to a pre-opening tour.
