Let’s Talk About the Future of Our HomesThe Passive House standard is all about squeezing maximum efficiency out of a building’s fabric - before we add energy generation. But here’s the tension:Do we make our buildings ultra-efficient before electrifying them?Or do we electrify everything first and improve comfort later?Rewiring Aotearoa have been championing the electrification of machines across the motu and have brought fresh insight to this very debate. Remember—our buildings are machines. Big or small, there are thousands across New Zealand. If we’re electrifying everything, shouldn’t we make those machines as efficient as possible too?Join us for an educational, thought-provoking, and fun-filled discussion on the best way forward for our Aotearoa abodes.Is the answer:Fabric First?Fabric Fifth?Ultimately - where’s the sense of comfort in dollar decision making?Tonight, we’ll debate the above with a range of passionate people, some passive, hopefully none aggressive!1.
