On-Site Energy Production
At Green Solution House we produce energy. Solar cells integrated into the facades and glazed ceilings generate electricity. Additional hot water is generated with a solar thermal plant integrated into the landscape. Since it was not economical to renovate the 30 year old swimming pool, we converted it into a highly insulated energy storage system for excess heat. The solar thermal plant heats and store water throughout the year, supplying it as needed for in-floor heating and potable hot water for the hotel. At the moment we are looking into an even more effective solution, which can supply our new rooms also.
