Passive House: The First Active House in Russia
The First Active House in Russia is designed to set a new standard for residential house construction in Russia. The house design is based on the Active House principles.
Energy
The First Active House in Russia exploits a variety of energy sources, which are integrated in the overall design. The features contributing towards a positive energy balance include a highly effective heat pump, thermal solar collectors for production of hot water and floor heating, and a PV solar cell system for generating electricity.
VELUX solar thermal collectors are designed for installation in combination with roof windows exploit the heat of the sun while providing a visually appealing and technically optimal solution. VELUX solar collectors can generally provide up to 70% of the energy required to produce domestic hot water.
The orientation and design of the house make it possible to utilize daylight more actively. The windows should be considered as energy contributors. They are placed strategically to allow for solar heat gain and optimum natural ventilation. The energy requirement for basic lighting in large parts of the house is minimized by effective use of daylight.
A tightly sealed construction is vital for achieving low energy consumption. The walls are highly insulated with multiple layers. Special highly compressed gypsum is added on the inner side of the walls to add thermal mass to the light timber frame construction.
The results of an energy calculation performed by the Passive House Institute in Russia show that the specific consumption of energy for heating during the heating period is 33 kWh/m2/year. Total consumption of primary energy is 90 kWh/m2/year.
Indoor climate
The First Active House in Russia has a healthy and comfortable indoor climate with daylight and fresh air.
The architects worked with variation of daylight in the different spaces and securing attractive views of the environment with strategically placed windows. Through collaboration with the consulting engineers the design was optimized based on indoor climate tests performed in 3D simulations. In the project group the Active House principles created a platform where cooperation between architects, engineers and energy specialists became a part of the creative design process.
Generous amounts of daylight create a light and pleasant atmosphere in the house. The daylight performance of the house has been specified using the daylight factor (DF) as performance indicator. The results of the daylight analysis show that all rooms, which are used actively during the light hours, have a daylight factor above 5%. Such high levels of daylight in the home are proofed to have potential for health benefits and increased alertness and safety.
Thermal comfort in the warm summer months is achieved with natural ventilation; cross ventilation and stack effect to maximize the ventilation rate. In order to provide a comfortable indoor climate all roof- and facade windows are fitted with interior and exterior blinds and awnings. Glare and overheating during the summer season are reduced with automatically controlled awning blinds.
The thermal climate with natural ventilation is secured with the advanced home automation system by Window Master. The system can automatically open and close windows based on the CO2 levels in the house. The VELUX INTEGRA electrical roof windows, façade windows and all sun screening products are integrated into this unique system. The Window Master system has a user-friendly and simple interface so it is easy to see the status of the products and operate them. The system used in the house is adaptable to the personal preferences of the dwellers.
Environment
The project is adapted to the specific climatic and architectural conditions of Moscow, a humid continental climate with warm summers and long, cold winters.
The homogenous material on the roof and façades is a reference to traditional Russian building methods. This solution is also ecological; the wood facade is durable and has a low C02 impact.
The wooden framework construction was chosen not only because it is an ecological solution, but also because it helps to ensure energy savings as multiple layers of wall construction will minimize cold bridges.
The First Active House in Russia is a pilot project; the house is situated in the outskirts of Moscow in Zapadnaya Dolina, a new residential community, which is now under construction. There are already plans to build more houses based on the active house principles in Zapadnaya Dolina. The aim of the project is to become the first project to be certified by the Russian green ratings standard.
The Russian Sustainable Building Council is a working group developing a new Russian Green Building Standard. The vision of the standard is to help shaping the public opinion about sustainable habitats and to create a rating system for certification of “green” buildings and settlements to change the regulatory framework and legislation in the field of construction and architecture.
Further description
The First Active House in Russia is designed to set a new standard for residential house construction in Russia. The house design is based on the Active House principles; balance between energy savings, healthy indoor climate and care for the environment all adding to the architectural quality and the well-being of the inhabitants.
The project is organized and developed by one of the leading developers in the Moscow region, Zagorodny Proekt company, in cooperation with the VELUX Group. The VELUX Group is working hard today on the solutions of tomorrow by promoting architecture that enhances our quality of life and the sustainable development of society.
The project unites interested parties based on a balanced and holistic approach to building design and performance. It is supported by the Russian Union of Architects, the Active House Alliance, Russian Sustainable Building Council, Eco Standard Group, Passive House Institute Russia, Wood Housing Association, Construction Physics Scientific and Research Institute and the Russian State Construction University in St. Petersburg.
To learn more about how the building will perform under real life conditions, data will be collected for reviewing and reporting the performance of the house. The monitoring will help determine the effectiveness of the architectural and technological solutions. The house will be open for the public for 6 months after completion, after which a 12 month period will follow with test families in residence.
