 The
Cropthorne Autonomous House"One of the most energy-efficient private dwellings in Britain"  Mike Coe and Lizzie Stoodley's Eco-Build in Worcestershire. • No space heating of any kind. No boiler, no wood stove, no heat pumps. • Completely 'water-neutral' by use of harvested rainwater and • composting toilets, so no connection to mains water or drainage. • Intelligent use of renewable energy rather than 'eco-bling' makes the house carbon negative. • Energy Requirement exceeds German Passivhaus at just 5kWh/mē/yr. • Obtains its servicing from the land on which it stands, giving it a tiny environmental footprint. • But designed to be acceptable to 'non-eco enthusiasts', to be a beautiful home inside and out, • and an inspiring place to live.
