Rammed earth wall
Non-toxic soil (several types) are rammed in temporary molds to create thick walls. These improve insulation, are water-resistant and can be waterproofed. New technology reduces the labor needed to create rammed earth walls.
Voltaic solar panel
Solar energy heats photovoltaic cells, composed of semiconducting, which generates electric current.
Green roof
Tiles designed to contain plants on roofs. Green roofs help filter the air, insulate homes and reduce heat emissions and greenhouse effect.
Eco kitchen more
Different means of transforming food scraps to fertilizer, indoors, and turning kitchens to micro farms.
Skylight and
Sunpipe
Bring extra sun light into the home, reduce heating and lighting costs. Sunpipes have internal reflective surfaces, used to route light to areas far from windows and roofs.
Grey water filter
Filter water from sinks and bathtubs and route it to the toilet or garden. This reduces fresh water consumption.
Windmill
Vertical axis windmills use wind to power electric generators and produce electricity.
Eco Window
Engineered windows can reflect solar heat in summer, absorb it in winter and improve home insulation. This reduces heating and cooling costs.
Thermo solar panel
The sun heats water as it circulates in conduits in the solar panel. This offsets the cost of hot water.
