Solar- and biomass energy:
Our contribution to a better environment is the use of a solar and biomass energy system, which produces enough thermal heat for the entire house; the recent installation of a modern biomass energy system enables us to use wood from our own forests.
Comparison:
Fuel Oil Consumption until 2001: approximately 60,000 litres/pa
After the installation of the solar energy system we were able to reduce our fuel oil consumption by 50 % and after the installation of the biomass energy system we did not have to buy any additional fossil fuels at all.
102 m2 of solar panels placed on our roof generate enough energy to supply our 2 houses with hot water.
The energy for our central heating is generated by 60 m2 of solar-glass panels placed on the outside facade of one of the houses.
