Even the renovation and the refit of my own Finca called for environmental considerations. I had a solar heating system installed, acquired warm water through solar energy and tried, wherever possible, to use only biologically harmless building materials.

As opposed to a restoration, it is much easier to deploy the latest and most innovative technologies with a new build. What is considered standard in mainland Europe must surely work here. With all this in mind, you inevitably fall back on the idea of a low energy house.

 The Concept:

Interested builders should benefit from my experiences and be able to find comprehensive information on this website.

optimacas.eu will be the source of information and catalyst for all things connected to progressive building in Mallorca.

Interested parties will be able to form a pool of competence and knowledge.
 
Pilot project with nationwide significance

According to statements from the Balearic Energy Ministry there is currently not one single building which is in line with the requirements of a passive or low energy house. (as of February 2007)
