Energy-efficient house design and Active House projects with solar power - AkvilonPro

An active house project meets the parameters of the Active House Alliance — a standard developed in Belgium that assesses buildings by comfort and sustainability. Every active house project on our site is strictly analysed against all parameters.

All Active House parameters are divided into 4 levels, where 1 is the highest level of compliance and 4 the minimum.

Which active house parameters are taken into account

Zone 1. Comfort

Daylight in living spaces, temperature, air quality.

Zone 2. Energy

Energy use by all house systems, including lighting and household energy. Energy generation by a solar power station and a wind generator. Total primary-energy consumption accounting for the country where the house is located.

Zone 3. Environmental impact

The environmental impact of building materials, the use of fresh water, and the use of eco-friendly timber, recyclable and certified materials.

After assessing all parameters we obtain the Active House Radar. When choosing an Active House project, look at how well the house meets the parameters you need. Active House homes are an evolution of Passive House standard homes: a passive house assesses only one of the nine active-house parameters, but with the utmost attention.

Active house projects are led by Pavlo Biriukovych, a passive- and active-house specialist at AkvilonPro. To order an active house project, get in touch.
