| Mock up of Las Vegas net zero home (source: Meritage Homes) |
A new crop of net zero homes in Las Vegas were recently unveiled by Meritage Homes. The green homes can generate as much energy as the homeowners consume, thanks to 100 percent ENERGY STAR-certified appliances, air-tight spray-foam insulation, "smart" controllers for landscape irrigation and low-flow showers, among other features.
Not only do the homes reduce monthly electric bills of home buyers, but with available federal tax credits, these green homes are more affordable than ever.
