Redevelopment construction and clean energy
But the pollution is not caused only by the traffic, but for the most part is generated hour after hour, minute after minute the energy required by all our homes and conveniences (electricity, heating, etc.)..
In recent times, construction, even to re-launch in a saturated market, and retrain more and more new and old buildings has become convinced that the future must meet the new demands of the industry, offering solutions with low energy consumption and low environmental impact.
This runs on several fronts:
- Use of renewable materials
- Optimization and energy saving housing
- Self-exploitation of clean energy from renewable sources
Now let's see point by point the solutions devised by the companies building Vicenza to relaunch a new form of building eco-friendly.
Use of renewable materials
Are increasingly being used in solid wood structures that allow to obtain special processes and a very limited impact on the environment, leading to a 20% compared to traditional masonry construction. However, to ensure that the wood may not fail and be renewed, it is necessary to better manage the crops and replant every tree progressively torn to the ground.
Optimization and energy saving housing
Implemented by the general construction mediated the implementation of thermal insulation both inside and outside the home and / or building. Internal insulation can be the use of special internal coats made with new technologies that not to disperse the heat inside to the outside (as they may be the windows with insulating double or triple glazing.
Instead, as regards the outer insulation are adopted construction techniques that allow, thanks to the use of the best materials, to obtain energy exchanges with the outside. Attention, not heat loss, but the exchange of energy.
Another key point of energy saving, is the reduction of water consumption (resource in the coming years will be less and less available) that can be implemented through the recycling of rainwater for flushing and the addition of special filters on the mixer (with reduction of waste by up to 50%).
Automatically uses clean energy
Already today, there are many concrete examples of Vicenza constructions involving the use of these techniques here between the main are the photovoltaic, for the production of electrical energy, and thermal panels for hot water production. These techniques, although apparently can be considered very expensive (due to the high cost of silicon that composes them), they allow high energy savings and in the future may also be a source of profit for the resale of energy to the entire network. This allows you to amortize the investment in a few years (about 4-5 years, then it depends on the geographic coordinates where it was installed the system).
In these terms are moving most of the construction companies throughout Italy, hoping it's not too late to cure our fevered planet.
