Passive House Buildings
Here you will find a worldwide overview of realized Passive Houses. In this database passive house projects can be registered and presented online for free.
It's Yorkโs Passivhaus Open Day from 7th-9th Nov! The UKโs first home certified to the Passivhaus Plus standard, generating more energy than it uses.
One of the UKโs first Ecohomes, ten years on, "the benefits of Passivhaus are as much in quality of life [...] as energy saving" say event hosts.

Six of the seven YCE directors - a bunch of effective-looking but genial folk, three in blue jumpers - sat round a table in a fairly nondescript room.
It's BOARD MEETING NIGHT! Where better than the gatehouse in York Cemetery for a director's meeting on a spooky windy October night? (Pizza box out of shot)

Did you know? York Minster recently installed 184 solar panels on its roof, enough to power 41 UK homes.
There is a quiet revolution happening with our communityโs power and @yorkminster.bsky.social should be celebrated!
