Roof with Triple Collecting System → PSTPV
Pluvial, Solar Thermal and PhotoVoltaic
The primary principles used in roof’s building , according to the diagnosis carried out during the preliminary design, are as follows:
PLUVIAL
- It will be in charge of collecting rainwater.
- It will store it in different cisterns:
- Non-potable: For irrigation or toilet cisterns.
- Potable: For consumption.
SOLAR THERMAL
- It will collect thermal energy from the sun.
- From 60% to 80% of the demand is thermal.
PHOTOVOLTAIC MAGNETIC HYBRID GENERATOR
- It will collect/generate Electric and/or Solar Energy.
- 20% to 40% of the demand is electrical.

PHOTOVOLTAIC MAGNETIC HYBRID GENERATOR
- When required, the roof can be equipped with aerodynamic systems and designs that compensate for wind pressure, preventing it from tearing off the solar panels and the roof.
Subsoil with Geothermal Management → SITS
Selective Independent Thermal Storage
Once temperature is captured and/or heat has been transferred into cold by means of Solar Thermal Equipment, this thermal energy temperature has to be maintained the same as the Independent Accumulators. These are located in the subsoil that serves as the foundation with a design that optimizes the exchange of accumulated temperatures in different PCMs (Phase Change Materials) and each Accumulator will serve a specific demand.

Integrated Energy Management

Advantages of the Self-Sustainable Buildings
nZEB (nearly Zero-Energy Building)
Global Irradiance Worldwide

In middle and low latitudes, between 2000 kWh/m2 and 2500 kWh/m2 are available annually.
The minimum demand necessary to cover the comfort needs of a house is 109 kWh/m2 per year.
