A BEN home (Bijna-Energie-Neutrale woning) is a nearly zero-energy home. This type of home uses very little energy for heating, cooling, hot water and ventilation. And that is not all: the energy it does need comes largely from renewable sources. This makes a BEN home one of the most sustainable choices you can make if you want to live in an environmentally friendly way.
A key feature of BEN homes is their low E-level (E-peil), a measure of a building’s energy performance. The lower the E-level, the more energy-efficient the home. A BEN home has an E-level below 30 kWh/m² per year. That means not only lower energy bills, but also a smaller environmental footprint.
Ready for sustainable living? With a BEN home you make a smart choice for both your wallet and the environment!
