HOUSE FUTURE WITHOUT CO2 AUTOPRODUCE ENERGY / ANSA
ROSORA OF ANGELS (ANCONA) - The house of the future already exists ', zero emission of CO2 and completely self-sufficient in energy: and' a lovely brick building , with six apartments and balconies, opened today at Angels Rosora, part of a small town of 1,800 inhabitants in the province of Ancona, the center of a project sponsored by Loccioni leader in advanced automation, measurement and control, with the participation of Enel and Whirlpool. The Leaf House''living''like a leaf, able to capture the natural elements, sun, water and land, all the requirements needed to live through the use of modern technologies, but also to an old heart'' '', namely 'the use of the wisdom of the past. The southern exposure to maximize the exploitation of solar panels and heat, thick walls insulate against heat and cold, but the property 'also has futuristic systems for energy efficiency and light. Like, for example, a hydrogen storage system of ENEL, which stores excess energy,''or''Whirlpool green set, consisting of appliances to more 'energy efficient on the Italian market, which interact with a counter''intelligent''Enel, while the automation solutions Loccioni coordinate the operation of installations and allow the monitoring of the quality 'of indoor air and recovery of stormwater. The top floor has a loft with sloping ceilings, the Whirlpool Zeos (Zero Emissions Open Space) where environmentally friendly products will be tested and implemented innovative initiatives to educate the consumer. But the building will welcome 'soon its first tenants: Loccioni employees of the group, which also will be chosen based on the characteristics of the core family (singles, families with one or more 'children) to transform the house into a laboratory of sustainable technologies and lifestyles, the use of solar tubes that with a mirrors game''lead''the light of day in the rooms even more 'dark schemes and demineralization of water. Project supervisor and 'Maria Federico Butera, guru of energy conservation, which today called for a change in the culture of the project, with greater attention to sustainability' environmental and energy. The Leaf House 'is really' the first brick of the project more 'broader Leaf Community (Life Energy And Future), community' to completely clean energy, which is developing at Angels Rosora and which also includes a micro-stations built in an old drain Enel, which with a jump of about one meter of water produces 160 MWh of energy per year, feeding the two plants Loccioni; a school roof with the solar movement by electrical or hydrogen. Partners of the project, a consortium of companies at the highest levels in their respective fields, including Ikea, lighting and iGuzzini Faam. According Loccioni Enrico, chairman of the group, the cost to build the Leaf House''are more 'by 10% compared to a building constructed using traditional techniques.'' But money 'will be recovered in a few years, with energy savings. Gia'''now - he explains - are not necessary connections to the electricity grid.'' Enel'' - Said Gennaro De Michele, head of the policy research and development of the electricity supply - has fielded''one of his most trials 'promising, the hydrogen storage system that will allow' continued use of some sources renewable, by their nature discontinuous or intermittent.'' For appliance manufacturers and the challenge of the future 'energy efficiency - points out Joseph Geneletti of Whirlpool -''off all elettromestici in Europe, there would be a saving of 50% consumption tax.''
