Some of the so-called "Zero Energy" initiatives envision each building supported by multiple on-site energy collection and generation systems. Based upon the building's operating posture, and the mix of energy sources available, such a building would pull 35% or less of its total energy budget from the grid. If the facility includes local buffering and storage of electrical energy, whether this buffering is in the form of souped-up traditional batteries or new-fangled hydrogen storage, this become viable. |
