Holland is going green
Thursday 6th March 2014 | Bloddick
A team of Delft University students has developed a concept for a solar-powered skin designed to optimize energy usage, while also preserving the classic Dutch architecture. The skin covers the exterior of the existing house from front to back; one side is fitted with glass and photovoltaic panels to harvest the energy from the sun, whilst the other contains added insulation to trap the heat indoors. According to the team, this concept demonstrates how almost a million and a half similar Dutch homes could become entirely energy neutral and still not lose their fascinating and inspiring shape.
