Engineers have developed innovative houses with a fully autonomous system of electricity supply: heat pump, battery and solar panels.
In the first 10 years of use, the owners of these homes will be able to completely give up the invoices for electricity. Daily Record writes about this.
Autonomous houses with their own system of electricity generation are becoming more and more popular in Scotland, after the successful implementation of the project in certain regions of England, Germany and New Zealand. The main purpose is to bring benefits for 100,000 households by 2030.
Forgetting the invoices The implementation of innovations was possible after the local government is introduced by a general heating standard for the new constructions, which entered into force in April last year. According to the document, all new houses must be built with modern heating systems. Michael Jarvis, the director of Mast Architects, said that these projects will not only reduce energy expenses, but will even be able to cancel them, thus improving the quality of people’s lives. The director of the “Zero Invoice” program in Scotland, Jim Bennett, puts high hopes in this development.
“With the adoption of the new law on the thermal standard for new constructions, it is the right time for the implementation of” zero invoices “in Scotland. It is an opportunity to offer the local inhabitants “green energy”, which represents the basis of the stability and perspective in life, “he stressed.
