Heat recycling within the buildings
External energy demand reduced to 60 kWh/sqm/year for new building (current rate 100 kWh/sqm/year). In some experiment installations solar cells add 5% to the household electricity demand. And solar collectors can yield up to 50 % of the annual hot tap water requirement.
