Identify the actual assignment question/prompt and clean it: remove any rubric, grading criteria, point allocations, meta-instructions to the student or writer, due dates, and any lines that are just telling someone how to complete or submit the assignment. Also remove obviously repetitive or duplicated lines or sentences so that the cleaned instructions are concise and non-redundant. Only keep the core assignment question and any truly essential context.

The remaining cleaned text is the assignment instructions. Use exactly this cleaned text as the basis for the paper.

Paper For Above instruction

Discuss the differences between PHI and PHIUS, including reasons for these differences. List three recent innovative Passive House projects in North America. Select one of the five Passive House principles and explain, in 500 words or bullet points, how this practice differs from traditional methods, its benefits, and any potential challenges or consequences that need to be addressed.
