Ex­pert Guid­ance

Some open houses will fea­ture pro­fes­sion­als who can dive deep in­to the tech­nic­al as­pects of Pass­ive House pro­jects. From en­ergy-sav­ing sys­tems to ad­vanced in­su­la­tion tech­niques, they're ready to an­swer all your ques­tions.

2025 Pass­ive House Open Days – That’s a Wrap!

Across the globe, we cel­eb­rated the Pass­ive House stand­ard with over 20 UK pro­jects and 16 US pro­jects, as well as nu­mer­ous events in coun­tries around the world. 

In Aus­tralia, 35 hosts wel­comed more than 1,000 vis­it­ors to ex­plore build­ings built to the Pass­ive House Stand­ard. With over 80 guided tours across mul­tiple cli­mate zones, at­tendees had the chance to see how Pass­ive House prin­ciples sup­port en­ergy ef­fi­ciency, in­door air qual­ity, and oc­cu­pant com­fort. In the UK, over 20 pro­jects, from new builds to deep ret­ro­fits, de­mon­strated how Pass­ive House homes de­liv­er calm, warm, and en­ergy-ef­fi­cient com­fort even in cold weath­er. At­tendees gained prac­tic­al in­sights through tours, hands-on de­mon­stra­tions, and dir­ect con­ver­sa­tions with homeown­ers, ar­chi­tects, and build­ers, high­light­ing the grow­ing rel­ev­ance of high-per­form­ance and ret­ro­fit pro­jects across the UK.

These are just a few re­flec­tions from this year’s in­ter­na­tion­al event, made pos­sible by the many hosts, vis­it­ors, and af­fil­i­ates who con­tin­ue to share their know­ledge and ex­per­i­en­ce. We ap­pre­ci­ate every­one who took part.

The next In­ter­na­tion­al Pass­ive House Open Days will take place Novem­ber 13–15, 2026—we look for­ward to an­oth­er op­por­tun­ity to con­nect and learn to­geth­er!
