Net Zero Energy

Definition of Net Zero Energy as it relates to Architecture, Green Building, Sustainable Architecture

Green walls, also known as vertical gardens, refer to vegetated architectural elements integrated into buildings' facades or interior spaces. These structures promote sustainability and biodiversity by providing habitats for flora and fauna, improving air quality through photosynthesis, reducing urban heat island effects, and enhancing building aesthetics and well-being for occupants. Green walls can be implemented using various systems, including modular panels, hydroponic and aeroponic technologies, or direct planting into structural support. The plants selected for green walls should be suitable for the local climate, require minimal maintenance, and contribute to the desired environmental performance and visual impact of the installation.
