The World’s First Energy Positive Office Building

For sustainability architect’s mind, a net zero energy building is the Holy Grail. But Elithis Tower, located in Dijon, France, exceed the net-zero energy office building ideal for a first positive energy, which means creating more power than consumed. The building, designed by architect Arte Charpentier, also produces fewer than six times the emissions of greenhouse gas emissions from traditional office structures.

The tower, which was originally a theoretical challenge initiated by Thierry Bievre, Director General of Elithis Engineering, made from recycled wood and insulation. Elithis tower is also home to 330 solar panels on the roof and solar shield to get rid of excess heat while allowing natural light to filter incoming

At the same time, the Office of emissions are recovered and used again in the Tour.

Engineering Elithis not want the achievement of energy efficiency to go unnoticed by the workers in the building, if the company has developed a common sign that shows the daily energy consumption, with the permission of the energy and emissions in 1600-sensor analysis.

Perhaps best of all, the 54 000-square-foot, 10 floor building which is relatively cheap to build, cost only $ 10 million. With prices comparable to the traditional structure, built Elithis turn pave the way for green building affordable.
