Zusammenfassung: | The Universidad Politecnica de Madrid (UPM) has been selected to participate in an international design and construction contest of a self-sufficient solar house. The goal is to build something that would be both, comfortable and capable of dealing with modern equipments, and beyond that, finding harmony between technology and environment. This adventure is called Solar Decathlon. Represents a unique educational and investigative experience for this university in which alumni and professors of multiple disciplines collaborate in one project, making a sustainable house born in the merging of bioclimatic architecture, the use of solar energy and domotics. |
