This home aims to operate 100% independently powered via an array of photovoltaic cells. Marlborough’s solar advantages will help produce energy for underfloor heating, appliances, lighting, and hot water. Excess energy generated can be fed back into the grid.
Passive solar heating through window positioning and glazing technology will transfer the sun’s energy to thermal mass materials within the home (exposed concrete flooring and block walls). Combine this with a high level of insulation in glazing, floor, walls and roofing and the result is a controlled, comfortable environment internally. Additional warmth when needed in the cooler months will be provided through underfloor heating and a wetback fire.
The photovoltaic panels form north-facing overhangs which will provide shade in warmer months and prevent excessive heat gain. Natural ventilation will help cool the home whilst east and west facing windows are limited to reduce solar gain when the sun is lower in the sky.
Efficient solar design… creating a home that is good for people, good for the planet, and good for the pocket!
