This magnificent house overlooking Lake Geneva in the canton of Vaud recently underwent a complete energy renovation project. The owners, who care about the environment and want to add value to their property, undertook a series of ambitious works to make their home more environmentally friendly.
The house was fitted with a number of cutting-edge technologies to optimise its energy efficiency. The owners opted for sustainable, high-performance solutions.
Firstly, they installed a geothermal heat pump, an efficient system that harnesses the natural heat from deep underground to heat the house in winter and cool it in summer. This innovative heating system is complemented by high-quality roof insulation, guaranteeing a significant reduction in heat loss and greater comfort all year round.
The central feature of the renovation is undoubtedly the solar roof fitted with VDiamond Terracotta tiles. These solar tiles, aesthetically integrated into the roof, not only reduce the house's carbon footprint, but also deliver substantial savings on energy bills.
To maximise the efficiency of this solar system, the owners have also ordered 2 storage batteries that conserve the energy produced during the day for later use, particularly at night or on less sunny days.
With an eye to the future and sustainable mobility, an electric car charging point has been added, linked to the solar system and allowing the car to be charged using only green electricity. The owners have purchased an electric car to complete their transition to a greener lifestyle.
This energy renovation project, which left no stone unturned, is transforming the house into a model of efficiency and sustainability. The owners can now enjoy optimum comfort while making an active contribution to protecting the environment.
