Readers can browse by category - meaning anyone interested in retrofit or new builds, for instance, can select whichever category interests them - or by issue.

Passive House Plus back issues now freely available online
Written by Jeff Colley
The digital versions of all previous issues of Passive House Plus are now freely available online. The magazine is available in entirety in digital form, while many of the feature articles are also now available in HTML form - or in other words as regular web articles. The digital editions use the Issuu pageflipper software, which was chosen for its functionality, simplicity and the ability for readers to interact with magazine content - for instance by sharing links to articles in the magazine via social media or email, or by clicking links to websites contained in articles and adverts.
