Passive House Plus (Sustainable Building)

The autumn issue of Passive House Plus features a groundbreaking new solar-powered passive house in Dublin that operates almost entirely off the grid, and a Cork retrofit that represents one of Ireland’s most dramatic ever energy renovations. It also includes beautifully designed new passive houses in the stunning locations of the Scottish highlands and the South Downs. There’s also an in-depth look at new research on why passive houses are better protected from dangerous build-ups of radon gas, and exclusive news on the Irish government’s ambitious plans for deep retrofit. Plus all the latest industry news, opinion, cutting edge analysis, and loads of great photography.
