NBI pushes for better buildings that achieve zero energy, zero carbon, and beyond – through research, policy, guidance, and market transformation.
Organization Overview

New Buildings Institute (NBI) envisions a future where the built environment represents an effective use of resources, a positive force against climate change, and a driver for local economies that creates jobs and saves energy costs. Our mission is to take leading-edge practices and technology applications for high performance buildings and translate them into innovative and practical solutions for the energy efficiency and commercial building industries. 

We are a nonprofit organization that has worked collaboratively for more than 20 years with industry market players — governments, utilities, energy efficiency advocates and building professionals — to promote advanced design practices, innovative technologies, public policies and programs that move buildings to zero energy and zero emissions. 

Our work falls into three major program areas and includes three key markets where our efforts can make the largest impact: 

-Getting to Zero Leadership and Market Development

-Advancing Codes and Policies

-Building and Program Innovation
