A house which generates all its energy needs
this seems a splendid example. I make two comments. 1 What is the large horizontal structure in the foreground? Possibly the heat source for the heat pump? It's not very aesthetically pleasing. 2 what measures have been taken to ensure health of the occupants? It is said that inhabitants of such houses suffer poor health due to lack of being challenged a by range wider temperature and humidity.

Great to see Passivhaus coming to Sheffield. Let's hope that the householder is more aware of green transport than the architect!
