Passive House
Passive House stands for healthy, comfortable living and impressive energy efficiency, regardless of the regional climate. Within the last several years, Passive House has gained rapidly in popularity, with over 60,000 residential and non-residential units in existence worldwide.

Many of these quality-assured examples are included in the Passive House database, which documents more than 4,400 Passive House buildings.
