SOLAR CHIRINGUITO
CONCEPT
Small pavilion combining the latest technologies on energy harvesting, energy cycles and digital fabrication tools with traditional and effective construction techniques and innovative solutions to fight against budget and time.
CONTEXT
Valldaura Self Sufficient Labs.
Optimal location to absorb solar energy and for users to enjoy the sunset with a tranquil view of the Monstserrat mountains.
MATERIAL
8 boards: 2440mm x 1220mm x 15mm plywood
6 boards: 2440mm x 1220mm x 9mm plywood
2 units: 1000 x 1600mm PV panels
Battery
Inverter
Controller
DESIGN
Development of technical and mechanical elements needed to produce energy using photolytic panels.
The structure is ready to store energy through batteries. Currently the harvested solar energy can support wireless connections to speakers, media players and light sources.
FABRICATION
CNC machinery (Green Fab Lab)
