Solar in 10: the Top 15 Most Asked Questions About Solar PV

What does it really mean to build an energy-positive home — and is it actually affordable? In this episode, we sit down with Stéphane Doise, founder of CORE We Care, to explore how passive design, solar energy, and thoughtful construction can create homes that are healthier, more efficient, and truly future-proof. We unpack the key differences between North American and European building approaches, the real costs behind high-performance homes, and why designing for long-term comfort and durability may be the smartest investment you can make. If you’re building a forever home — or rethinking how we live — this conversation will change how you see the future of housing.
