Full Description

Passive use of the sun, ground and wind are at the heart ofa new Quebec library design. Solar energy is prioritized, and all outdoor airis supplied through an earth channel (passive geothermal). In addition, naturalventilation is used for about half the library’s open hours each year. Theseand other strategies resulted in an energy savings of 42% compared to theASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2007 reference building.
