In 2014, Luc Plowman’s consulting practice had just 2 Passive House projects on the books. Now, just over 6 years later, he has 40 underway. He’s witnessed Australia’s Passive House growth firsthand. Luc is the founder and director of Detail Green in Beechworth, Australia, and one of a small cadre of Passive House certifiers in the country. Before his work at Detail Green, Luc worked as a senior sustainability engineer and project engineer. 

 In this episode of Passive House Podcast, co-host Matthew Cutler-Welsh talks with Luc about his perspectives on the Australia Passive House scene, the power of experiential learning in convincing builders and homeowners that Passive House is the way to go, and the “aha!” moments that he has witnessed as people engage in this learning. 

Listen to the full episode to learn how Luc demystifies Passive House construction and hear tips from his eventful Passive House career.
