Treehugger has detailed specs, photos, and videos of this innovative smart house. It has passive solar, complex heat pumps, LED lighting, solar power, software that controls power coming in from and out to the grid, and an electric car.
This is where the idea of the smart house makes sense for the average homeowner and builder. Who cares if your fridge is talking to your washing machine; what matters is that your house is talking to your car and working together with it to make them both net zero energy and net zero carbon, dealing with our two biggest sources of CO2, the house and the car.
