Here is the complete presentation of a three-energy heating house: solar, wood and electric supplement located in Lorraine.

This house "was" an electric house from the 80s that its owner completely transformed himself into a solar and wood house. The solar and wood duo constitutes for us the current compromise, the most econological of the moment.

This achievement is a fine example of solar self-construction that many owners should follow instead of installing heat pumps or other subsidized solar systems that are often overcharged ... and ultimately not very profitable for the planet and society ...
