The Endesa Pavillion: Solar House 2.0

The Endesa Pavillion, Solar House 2.0, is a testbed for informational grid technologies, driven and designed by IAAC with the support of Endesa. The pavillion, settled at the Olimpic Port of Barcelona on the score of the Smart City BCN Congress, will be installed at the Marina Pier since november 28.

The structure brings the distributed intelligence concept to the realm of architecture through a multiscalar aproach. The project aims to define an adaptative constructive system able to respond each solicitation at the lowest scale. By doing this, each single module could answer to his own structural, energetical and enviromental needings. The skin will act as a network of inteligent nodes, a “solar brick” that protects from the solar radiation, collects and storage the energy the data at the local scale.
