This 2800sf custom designed near-ZERO emissions home was built in 4 months near Lions Head ON, Bruce Peninsula and made use of passive and active thermal solar heating with a small wind turbine for self sufficient energy using AGM sealed batteries for off-grid operations. With lots of pre-planning construction started March 2001 and was we were able to move in 7 July to complete interior finishing 4 weeks later. A 1000gal stainless storage tank is headed by a solar thermal heat exchanger with 18kW of solar thermal panels on the roof.
