Abstract

According to studies, buildings use around 40% of the total energy consumption in the world. Most of this consumed energy comes from fossil
fuel, one of the sources of environmental pollution. The Net Zero Energy Building (NZEB) is an alternative to this alarming pollution the main
objective of this research is to integrate the renewable energy sources (RES) and the utility grid with the electrical load of NZEB.
