No Oil, No Power, No Problem!

Here is a great video of a passive solar house using a double envelope construction. I got this from the TreeHugger website. Enjoy

Hey fellow Dorchesterian...that's a really cool video. I've seen that concept before (possibly on the Discovery channel) but it's still awesome nonetheless.

Have you seen the house parallel to the Neponset bridge on the Dorchester side that's covered in solar panels? I bet they pump energy back into the grid especially on a sunny day.

I go my the Neponset bridge everyone and a while. I'll keep an eye out for it.
