8 2. Solar Settlement

9 Front rolfdisch

10 and rear.

11 Zoning rolfdisch

12 PV roofs triple-glazed windows

13 3. Sun Ship

14 Sunship rolfdisch - residential and commercial tennants - EXPO 2000-Project - Completion date: Size: 6500 m2 - Building cost: 20 Mil. Euros

15 Ventilation flaps for night cooling

16 Vacuum insulation panels (VIP)

17 Phase Change Material (PCM)

18 Sustainable Architecture: rolfdisch - light and pleasant rooms - friendly-comfortable atmosphere - healthy room temperature - high quality lifestyle - respect for the environment

20 4. Costs and gains of sustainable architecture

21 Feed-in tariffs - help to create a market for PV - counterbalance subsidies for fossil-nuclear energy - have been or are being adopted by 80 countries

22 The Solar Settlement and Sunship rolfdisch The Sunship produces kwh sungenerated electricity per year. Heat energy needs sink to 15 kwh/m². With a photovoltaic capacity of 443,5 kwp, the entire Solar Settlement produces kwh solar electricity per year. This replaces the consumption of 200,000 liters of oil, year after year.

23 PlusEnergHouse Sustainable-house concept for housing developments Created in 1997 rolfdisch The Solar Settlement homes produce a surplus of 36 kwh / (sqm a)

24 Solar Settlement PlusEnergyHouses rolfdisch Monitoring Bergische Universität Wuppertal Illustration: Explanation of the average primary energy balance of the settlement houses. a House EnEV Standard b + low-current household c Passive house d + renewable energy e + compensation for generated solar power

25 PlusEnergHouse Sustainable-house concept for housing developments Created in 1997 rolfdisch Heating costs are about 150 per year. Owners save about 2,500.

26 PlusEnergHouse Sustainable-house concept for housing developments Created in 1997 rolfdisch The solar electricity is sold to the public grid. The average gains: 3,000 a year.
