Solar panels for warm water and electricity provide for the necessary additional energy.
Better than a passive house
The term a "passive house" determines that the building is expected to need almost no energy at all. With Styro Stone it is possible to construct buildings, which even produce energy! In this case, Johannes Out, representative of Styro Stone Netherlands, built such a house in Leusden in the centre of the Netherlands.
The trend is gathering momentum here in the UK with StyroStone due to provide the shells for 7 Active Houses to be built in Molesey.

On the 15th of March "De Telegraaf", a dutch national newspaper, described this utopia turned into reality: Your house is the generator for your car, because it does not need energy, it produces a surplus enabling you to drive your car for 5.000 km annually. |
|
Only one week later the dutch minister of the environment, Jacqueline Cramer, convinced herself of this technical progress - here in talks with Johannes Out, representative of Styro Stone Netherlands, discussing the advantageous way of building with Styro Stones and the easy application of brick slips. |
|
"Toekomstwoning" means future house; almost every dutch newspaper had a "feeding frenzy" reporting about this event afterwards. |
Technical details of the active house:
|
The ground floor slab is insulated with foam glas. |
|
The walls are constructed with the Super-RR from Styro Stone. The u-Value of 0,14 was sufficient! |
|
To optimize the energy recovery in the ventilation system, coils are laid out for 60 m at a depth of 2m. |
|
The energy-recovery ventalation system is situated at the end of the garage, being inside the house. Here, a 1000 l tank serves for storing the energy. |
|
The house is air conditioned and heated using underfloor heating combined with the heat recovery ventilation system. |
|
The house is completely electronically controled. |
|
In the Netherlands a steady wind helps to generate energy. |
And this is, how you drive to work!
|
A comfortable car to use inside the cities, without petrol/diesel fueled engine - only an envioromently freindly electric motor! |
|
It is charged with the surplus energy of the house. |
Correction

Johannes Out does not drive to work! |
