The possibility of applying the zero-energy building strategy to improve the energy efficiency of buildings next to lakes using the Revit program, with an average estimate of approximately 20%. It reviewed the proposed solutions to improve the energy efficiency of the proposed residential villa and proved that solar energy is a clean and reliable source for residential buildings. The research also concluded that zero-energy buildings are a sustainable and economically viable solution. There is also the need to plan future developments towards a carbon neutral and greener world. The green villa proposed by the research obtained the LEED Gold certificate. The research recommendations were the use of the Revit program in designing and building sustainable buildings. The need to support the zero-energy building strategy from governments.
