Solar Decathlon 2013

in German

With the sustainable plus energy house LISI the TU Vienna, together with its cooperation partners, won first place in the prestigious Solar Decathlon competition 2013 in California. LISI stands for “Living Inspired by Sustainable Innovation” and is an example of a courtyard-type house built from sustainable materials that is ideally suited for low-rise, high-density development. The house is conceived for one to two people and thanks to its well thought-out energy concept and smart architectural details it adapts perfectly to different climatic zones. This eco-house guarantees sun in winter, shade in summer, and more than enough solar energy for its own needs.
