Large-scale PV plant to exploit solar energy to support general power supply and cut additional operating costs
Use of innovative concrete in the foundation piles and the floor slab lowers the CO2 content by about 57%
Rainwater will be captured in cisterns and used to water Taunusanlage
Heat and cooling generation with district heating and heat pumps
Waste heat utilization from small-scale kitchen equipment cooling to reduce ancillary costs
Double-skin facade allows windows to be opened for ventilation, enhancing comfort
Daylight and presence-dependent lighting controls/ dimming
Elevator destination control system for fast movement within the high-rise. Carbon-fibre lift cables considerably reduce the mass moved and optimize energy consumption.
