dc.description.abstract	A Net Zero Energy Building (NZEB) is a residential or commercial building with greatly reduced energy consumption by efficiency means, such that the remaining energy load can be supplied with Renewable Energy (RE) technologies. This paper tries to explore the concept behind NZEB and its different definitions. The life cycle costs associated with a NZEB and its feasibility. This paper also reviews all the different NZEBs around the world and provides a statistical analysis about their performance. The main objective of this paper is to verify the feasibility of a Net Zero Energy Building in Bangladesh using simulation Building Energy Optimization Simulation Tool (BEopt). This is achieved by running software simulations over a hypothetical building in Dhaka, Bangladesh with parameters pertaining to Bangladesh and then analyzing the results to determine the feasibility of such a project.	en_US
