Abstract – The main objective of this paper is to study and
analysis the existing building and also to give an overview on an existing building to make it a perfect Net Zero Energy Building. It is much difficult to understand the overall concept of a net zero energy building. As all we know that the building has significant impact on the energy use and the environment which is turn affect on the development of the present era. In present the lack of conventional energy sources encourages in developing the NZEBs.According to the survey a major effect of building on the total worldwide energy consumption level i.e. around 40% of the total energy is consumed by only buildings and becoming a major primary energy consumptive part of the worldwide structure. The ZEB definition can be describe significantly the demand and fuel supply strategies and conversion accounting are appropriate to meet a ZEB goal.
Renewable Energy Resources. Sunlight, wind, rain, tidal energy and geothermal heat are some examples of Renewable Energy Resources. The aim of this Research Paper is to focussing on the building to create it a Net Zero by using a Renewable Energy Resources instead of Non Renewable Resources. We can use Solar Energy, Wind Energy, Tidal Energy etc to make the building net zero. We cannot use Geothermal source of energy at a level due to lack of technology. We can use the Wind Energy when the velocity of air is very high. It works only in the open areas. The widely use Renewable Source of energy is Solar Energy. Solar Panel can be used as Solar Photovoltaic cell, solar thermal heater, etc.

1. INTRODUCTION
A grid connected photovoltaic power system, or gridconnected PV power system that is connected to the utility grid. A grid-connected PV system consists of solar panels, one or several inverters, a power conditioning unit and grid connection equipment. When, conversely, on-site energy generation exceeds the building energy requirements, the surplus energy should be exported back to the utility grid, where allowed by law. The excess energy production offsets later periods of excess demand, resulting in a net energy consumption of zero. Due to current technology and cost limitations associated with energy storage, grid connection is usually necessary to enable the Net Zero Energy balance.
The term of Net Zero Energy Residential building is define as the building with zero net energy consumption i.e., the total amount of energy used by the building on annual basis is roughly equal to the total amount of renewable energy created on the site. The concept of a Net Zero Energy Building (NZEB), one which produces as much energy as it uses over the course of a year, recently has been evolving from research to reality. Currently, there are only a small number of highly efficient buildings that meet the criteria to be called "Net Zero". As a result of advances in construction technologies, renewable energy systems, and academic research, creating Net Zero Energy buildings is becoming more and more feasible.
1.1 Energy Resources 1.1.1 Non Renewable Energy Resources A non-renewable resource (also called a finite resource) is a resource that does not renew itself at a sufficient rate. Fossil Fuels such as Coal, Petroleum, Natural Gas are all considered as Non renewable Energy Resources.
1.1.2 Renewable Energy Resources The source of energy which can be used again and again without threatening the nature so much is known as Š 2017, IRJET

1.2.1 Grid Connection
1.2.2 Off Grid Connection An off grid photovoltaic is when your solar photovoltaic system is not connected to the utility grid and you are producing your own electricity via solar, wind, generator, etc. This system will generally have a battery bank in order to store the electricity for use when needed.
