Abstract
This article was published in the Summer 2015 through ASHRAE in High Performing Buildings Magazine. “Tucked away in the midst of a Canadian suburb is an ordinary-looking neighborhood that may represent the future of sustainable residential heating systems. Drake Landing Solar Community proves that a solar energy district heating system can store summer heat and meet a large fraction (over 90%) of space heating demands in a cold climate.”
