The project is co-financed by the Governments of Czechia, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia through Visegrad Grantsfrom International Visegrad Fund. The mission of the fund is to advance ideas for sustainable regional cooperation in Central Europe.
This project was made possible through Standard Grant No. 22110280 from the International Visegrad Fund.



Thispublication isacollectionofthedesign projectsproducedattheInternationalTrainingSchool,heldin theperiodof16.05.-20.05.2022and at a Second Training School realized between 13.06-17.06.2022. The Training School is part of the project Towards Sustainable Future: SustainableBuildingsChallenge.TheworkthatwasbeingproducedbytheparticipantsoftheWorkshop,underthementorshipoftheGenera team via online meetings.
The design proposals intend to serve as a guide for architects and engineers involved in the process of building design and construction, to improve their knowledge in Sustainable Buildings Design and to stimulate implementation in the architectural design practice. Also, it is inteded for common citizens alike which would like to learn more about Sustainable Buildings and how they can contribute to their better life quality as wellas the opoortunities they provide for preserving the environment.
We hope that the materialpresented will instigate creative and innovative thinking for further advancements in sustainable building design.

We would would like to acknowledge the support ofthe InternationalVisegrad Fund for the realization of this book and their strive towards a more Sustainable Future.

PHOTOVOLTAIC PANELS




INVENOR


The eaves have dimensions that allow, during the summer, to prevent the sun's rays from entering directly through the windows, thus keeping the room lower temperatures. In winter, it lets in a larger amount of light that enters through the windows and heats the room.
Photovoltaic (PV) modules convert sunlight into electricity. They have no moving parts, so they are reliable and have minimal maintenance needs. The PV system does not need fuel, does not emit polluting gases, is silent and maintenance is minimal. PV panels produce electricity even in cloudy conditions and in winter.
least two layers of glass, placed separately distance (with border strip) and hermetically sealed. The border tape contains a dehydrator to absorb the moisture that remained between the layers of glass, This prevents fogging between the layers.
The light pipe is used to bring daylight from the outside to the inside of the closed space and can be easily applied during renovation or during the construction of a new building. This technology avoids some disadvantages associated with ceiling glazed openings.

The main orientation of the rooms is southwest. They need blinds arises for sun protection in summer. On the northern terraces there are trees that protect the rooms from cold wind.
The eaves have dimensions that allow, during the summer, to prevent the sun's rays from entering directly through the windows, thus keeping the room lower temperatures. In winter, it lets in a larger amount of light that enters through the windows and heats the room.
of glass, placed separately distance (with border strip) and hermetically sealed. The border tape contains a dehydrator to absorb the moisture that remained between the layers of glass, This prevents fogging between the layers.


Solar thermal systems use the energy from the sun to heat or preheat sanitary water. They can also contribute to the central heating system.
Solar collectors use the heat from the sun to heat a fluid which then transfers the energy to sanitary water. The collectors, if they have suitable optical characteristics, produce thermal energy even in cloudy weather.


Heat diverters consist of a fan and ducts, and are very inexpensive to purchase, install, and use. They move the water from the warm zones to the colder ones. The diverters redistribute the warm air that collects in the upper zones to the lower ones, that is, they bring the warm air from the ceiling zone back down to the floors.
