A panel discussion with net zero energy homeowners.
Grant MacEwan University CN Theatre

Free refreshments. Free discussion.
Net zero energy homes are becoming an increasingly popular option in Canada. These buildings generates as much energy as they require over the course of the year. Edmonton now has eight net zero energy homes. How is it to live in a net-zero-energy home?  Are they easy to live in?  Are they comfortable? Do they work? What are the utility bills? What about maintenance?  Did you have to change your lifestyle at all? What would the occupants change?
Come hear the human perspective on these cutting edge experiments in northern climate sustainable living.
Panelists will include:
Dave Johnson - Riverdale House
Dennis and Christi Cuku - Parkland House
Shafraaz Kaba - Manasc Isaac Architects

Join Us for Our Casino!

SESA will be running a two day casino on Feb 28 and 29 this year. AGLC funding has been our primary source of revenue for the last 20 years, and will continue to be so, at least for the near term. If you volunteer your time, think of this as a good opportunity to pick the brains of many of our experts and board members. It will be at Century Casino this year, which has close LRT access from the south (Belvedere Station). You will be well fed and the work is relatively easy.
Please contact Andy Smith at 780-486-7934 (office) or 780-461-8538 (home) for more information.
