In project H2Otel which will settle down on the river Amstel, water will be used for reception of the electric power, heating or cooling of premises and meal preparation. As it is informed, in hotel the set of other power saving up systems also will be used.
Besides, to protect rooms of the hotel from overheating, a building facade will cover with thin plates from thermally processed tree. Thanks to it will probably reduce energy consumption by cooling of premises. Edges of front plates will cover with copper that the sunlight was reflected in premises. It will allow to reduce current consumption to illumination.
Usually hotels very uneconomically spend energy. For example, numbers should be aired constantly even if nobody lives in them. Use of water as an energy source, according to experts, can solve this problem.
