Sun Moon Mansion: The world's largest solar building.

Nowadays, modern architecture goes hand in hand with bioclimatic constructions , in order to reduce the energy crisis. For this reason, important powers in the use of clean energy have focused on the creation of large sustainable buildings where different technologies such as solar panels and lights are implemented . Such is the case of European cities where it is planned to have 100% carbon-free buildings by 2050 and China, where the largest solar building in the world was built, called Sun Moon Mansion.

China: culture of sustainability
This magnificent building was built in the northeast of China, in Deshou, Shangdong province. In this country, the use of renewable sources from natural light has spread to the point of making it the first producer of solar energy on earth today .

And it is no wonder, as this Asian territory is an economic and technological power that seeks to stand out on a global level. And at the same time, protect its population, which is the largest in the world, from environmental impact.

China is thus looking to a 100% green future and is betting unsurpassably on electricity from photovoltaic systems. In addition to its many companies and solar installations in homes, parks, industries and infrastructure in general, the country's environmental leaders are promoting tourism through this building they called Sun Moon Mansion. This is a sign of their architectural ingenuity in line with renewable technology and care for the environment.

Himin Solar Energy Headquarters
The Sun Moon Mansion is home to one of the most internationally recognized renewable energy brands. It is the company Himin Solar Energy , which was founded more than 20 years ago by Ming Huang. This oil equipment engineer, in the midst of his concern about the totalitarian dependence on coal and oil, decided to get down to work by founding this company. It is the most important brand today in the field of solar heaters and other sustainable technologies.

“The King of the Sun”, as the multimillionaire Ming Huang is well known , was able to design and materialize his dream. He created an entire city with photovoltaic panels and the largest building in the world with solar energy. The “Solar Valley” or Solar City, was the product of the ingenuity and ecological culture of this professional. Within this, the Sun Moon Mansion is unique, whose architectural creation stands out among the entire city.

What is the Sun Moon Mansion like?
This building is characterized by being a modern and eco-efficient structure . It is spread over an area of over 75 thousand square meters and all its spaces run on solar energy.

This mansion has the following facilities:

-Research Center

-Exhibition halls

-Meeting and training rooms

-A Hotel

Renewable technology and smart architecture…

These rooms not only have a striking and attractive design, just like the entire exterior of the Sun Moon Mansion. They are also equipped with massive solar panels using the latest green technology. So much so that this intelligent architecture developed advanced insulation in the roofs and walls . In order to save a great deal of energy, which, compared to the national average, contributes to cutting consumption by more than 30%.

So it can be said that this gigantic construction, whose roof is covered by approximately 5 thousand square meters of photovoltaic panels, requires only 10% of the total energy that any building in its geographical area would require in order to operate.

The windows, for their part, have solar protection thanks to their intelligent mechanisms. These are equipped with five systems that generate photovoltaic energy, capable of producing more than 30,000 kWh of electricity annually. These are interconnected to their electrical grid and embedded in the glass structures by means of BIPV modules, which not only generate electricity, but also emit light.

In addition to these valuable technological elements, the Sol Luna Mansion, as it is translated, is also equipped with air collectors, seasonal energy storage, heating, ACS and also solar cooling through geothermal energy generation systems powered by photovoltaic panels.
