S&A Home Builders
Project Summary
For this year’s Race to Zero competition, Next Generation Building Solutions (NGBS) has partnered with a production home builder in the Central Pennsylvania Region, S&A Homes. This partnership aims to create an affordable, Zero Energy Ready Home, that is highly constructable and meets the requirements of production builders. Our team has been working with two of S&A Homes’ top selling home models , the Newport and the Dartmouth, and has recreated it into the New American Home, Ripple. Ripple will be a Zero Energy Ready Home that S&A Homes will be able to offer to customers across their entire building region. By working alongside a real production builder, along with experienced industry advisors, NGBS has produced a feasible, high performance home that is accessible to home buyers throughout the South and Central Pennsylvania Region.
