Weber State and partners build the Northern Wasatch Parade of Homes’ first net-zero home 

The Northern Wasatch Parade of Homes featured its first affordable net-zero home in summer 2019 thanks to a unique partnership with Weber State, Habitat for Humanity of Weber and Davis Counties, Dominion Energy, Rocky Mountain Power, Davis Technical College and Ogden-Weber Technical College.

The 2,160-square-foot house belongs to a mother and six children who lost their home to the tornado that hit Ogden in 2016. After the tornado, the family was separated, with some of the children living with relatives.

The home, located at 450 15th Street in Ogden, demonstrates the ways in which existing houses can be retrofitted to achieve net-zero energy, meaning the home is fully powered by renewable energy sources.
