A joint initiative between Alice Solar City and Desert Smart COOLmob, this private home had over 18 energy and water saving devices installed. Energy efficient measures included installation of an external skin and adjustable shading, solar hot water, solar power, LED lighting,energy efficient appliances and an LCD energy use display showing energy generation and consumption. You can read about these here.
Over 1300 people visited the house during the 12 regular Open Days since it orginally opened in September 2009. This project has now ended and there will be no more Open Days.
Self-guided tours gave visitors an insight into the latest energy and water saving technology. You can download a copy of the guide booklet here.
