Multi-Year Program Plan 2008

The Building Technologies Program (BTP) Multi-Year Program Plan describes the planned research, development, and demonstration activities for this program. On this page you'll find background information on the plan and a link to a feedback form.

The BTP Multi-Year Program Plan was completed in August 2005, updated in January 2007, and July 2008. It represents months of planning, including tough-minded peer reviews, rigorous internal evaluations, as well as examining key opportunities offered by our external partners.

Much progress has been made in the past year, and the current Multi-Year Program Plan is a significant step forward to reaching our Zero Energy Buildings(ZEB) goals. The path to ZEB will show continuous demonstrated success, focusing on incremental steps and a series of technical targets. This plan represents only a snapshot in time of the program, and is a part of a continuous planning process. As we continue on the path to success, please provide your feedback and comments to BTP using the form below.
