Renewable energy buildings at MetaEfficient.com

I recently discovered a cool site that highlights solar and wind energy using buildings called MetaEfficient.com. Just looking through their archives I’ve found a lot of fascinating buildings and building technologies. For example, the above building is Sanyo’s Solar Ark a 315 meter long building incorporating 5,046 individual solar panels in central Japan. There’s also a solar skyscraper in Manchester that’s worth looking at if you’re interested in that sort of thing.

If you happen to be building yourself, you might also want to look at these solar tiles or this domestic turbine.
