• Ensures a high quality indoor environment.
• High efficiency conventional energy and systems use to cover the demand not satisfied with renewable energy.

From energy efficient buildings we must evolve to net zero energy buildings and from there to positive energy buildings, which contribute to the system providing more energy than they consume. In consequence our desing let us the following:

• Reduces operating and maintenance costs.
