Quebec urged to cut winter energy demand with Passivhaus building standard

A contributor to a local paper argues that Quebec's government failed, whether by oversight or choice, to recognise that cutting emissions requires dramatically reducing winter energy demand. The piece calls for new buildings to be designed to the Passivhaus standard, a high-efficiency construction approach, and is prompting discussion about energy policy and building codes in the province.
Why now: Debate over how building standards and government policy can reduce winter energy use and emissions in cold regions.
