Description
An account of the resource
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">The Macro Micro studio is the first off-grid entirely renewable energy powered building in the UK. It has been designed and constructed by a team of students from the Departments of Architecture and Planning, Physics and Engineering. The building combines ultra-low-energy construction practices to conserve heat with integrated and controlled technologies for generating, storing and exporting power. The technology exceeds current best practice for high-performance buildings in Europe, the aim being to bring solutions for a new generation of such buildings into the mainstream of design.</span></p>
