Why Passive House?
kw/h stands for kilowatt-hour, a common billing unit for electrical energy. We believe that the most environmentally friendly form of energy is the energy that’s not used. Passive House buildings require drastically less energy for heating, up to 90% when compared with conventional buildings. So kw/h is something our practice thinks about a lot, with the goal of reducing energy expenditures.
The Passive House approach relies on 5 simple principles to reduce energy needs and achieve maximum comfort for a building’s inhabitants.
