The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently demonstrated the first zero-energy residential test facility in the Gaithersburg, Maryland, campus. The Institute invited local, federal and state government officials to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony to commemorate this special moment.
The Institute hopes that this base, which uses solar photovoltaic power generation and solar hot water systems, will develop self-sufficient housing for the future American housing industry. The base will also be used to test a variety of energy-saving technologies and ultimately help commercialize cutting-edge clean energy technologies.
According to Design Build Solar, in the short term, the base will be used to study self-sufficient family homes. The building looks like a standard American home, with two bedrooms and four bedrooms and three bathrooms. Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in the United States will use computer simulations and mechanical controls to imitate the activities of a family of four over a period of one year. The building will switch electrical and lighting equipment at scheduled times. All energy will come directly from the house itself.
The test site was financed by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and was designed and developed jointly by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology and the US Department of Energy, a construction consulting firm: American Architecture Planning and Building Sciences.
