This paper describes the case of the Ecole du Tournant in the province of Quebec. This school is greenhouse gas free and is 80 % more energy efficient than a similar school built according to the Model National Energy Code for Building (MNECB). That result has been obtained thanks to an innovative design method, its envelope's quality, its high efficiency lighting systems, low-energy HVAC system and intelligent control system.L
