Peveril Solar House
Built in 2007, this modern house has been adapted to achieve a Net-Zero energy balance. The house was built with a ground source heat pump and various adaptations have aimed to ensure
the building is entirely solar heated all year round. A 4kW photovoltaic solar panel sytem provides 3.2MwH of power each year. The panels provide energy to the heat pump and inject spare energy to the large underground thermal store. this has reduced the annual electric consumption of the heat pump to 3.2MwH, equal to the output of the PV array.
