AUBURN — The nonprofit passivhausMAINE, which promotes sustainable and passive building throughout the state, is continuing its series of trainings to help hobbyist, homeowners, and new and experienced builders employ passive house principles.

A full-day training session for $25 will take place at Central Maine Community College in Auburn this Thursday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. In addition to lunch, the training will include information on Maine Uniform Building and Energy Code (MUBEC), passive house principles and methods for determining the efficiency of a building.

This training is part of a partnership between passivhausMAINE and the Governor’s Energy Office to provide Mainers with expertise designed to reduce the carbon footprint of new and existing construction. Maine passed its strictest building code to date in 2021, incorporating new standards around energy efficiency.
