During the Energy and Environmental Building Alliance (EEBA) High Performance Home Summit in Salt Lake City, Utah, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the winners of the Indoor AirPLUS Leader Awards and the Department of Energy (DOE) announced the winners of the Zero Energy Ready Home (ZERH) Housing Innovation Awards.

The EPA's Indoor AirPLUS Leader Awards recognize market-leading Indoor airPLUS partners who design and promote safer, healthier, and more comfortable indoor environments by offering enhanced indoor air quality protections for new home buyers. The ZERH Housing Innovation Awards, managed by DOE, honor the best in innovation on the path to zero energy ready homes by recognizing forward-thinking builders delivering homebuyers with a better homeowner experience.

Presentations of the awards took place earlier this month and NAHB members dominated both.
