Solar wall technique in India (GERES)

©GERES (2011) - Solar wall technique video in India
In the high valleys of the Himalayas, people experience extreme living conditions including glacial winter temperatures (and prolonged isolation (passes closed 6 months/year). There is little vegetation and biomass is sparse. On the other hand, the region gets an exceptional sunshine which is worth developing. Several pilot projects have been carried out by GERES since 2000. They all have shown that a 60 % saving in energy consumption can be achieved by equipping living quarters with passive solar technology combined with thermal insulation.

This is genius. Simple no power tools used. We make our houses so complicated when they dont need to be.
