At the Technical University of Denmark, simulations were systematically carried out, designs were optismised and the first zero-energy house was built. The building was later used as a guest house for the university. However, the active solar technology was not renewed after it became defective. As a result, the "zero-energy house" objective was set aside in favour of the "low-energy house". {{:picopen:korsgaard_dth_nullenergi.jpg?300 }} <- ** The DTH zero-energy house on the campus in Kopenhagen.**\\ \\ The "DTH zero-energy house" by Prof. Vagn Korsgaard (Kopenhagen, 1973) was also a Passive House.

-{{:picopen:philips_experimentierhaus.jpg?300 }} <- ** The Philips Experimental House (from: Hörster et al))**\\ \\ Parallel to the Scandinavian and American developments, systematic study of energy-efficient buildings was carried out in Germany by Dr. Horst Hörster (research group leader), Dr. Bernd Steinmüller (building models and simulations), Dr. Günther Bergmann, Dr. Richard Bruno, Dr. Wilhelm Hermann, Dr. Reinhard Kersten, and Ing. Klaus Klinkenberg, with funding provided by the Federal Ministry of Research. A super-insulated experimental house, built in 1974/75, equipped with ground heat exchangers, controlled ventilation, solar and heat pump technology and “inhabited” by a computer, served as a test and calibration laboratory for computer models, used to explore the possibilities of energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources. These studies showed the potential for energy savings in the order of 10 to 20 times for Europe and America using passive measures alone, thus proving that such measures are an important step on the way to energy efficient buildings. Dr. Bernd Steinmüller has been engaged in research on efficient buildings since 1997 and continues to be a pioneer, disseminating original ideas worldwide. +{{:picopen:philips_experimentierhaus.jpg?300 }} <- ** The Philips Experimental House (from: Hörster et al))**\\ \\ Parallel to the Scandinavian and American developments, systematic study of energy-efficient buildings was carried out in Germany by Dr. Horst Hörster (research group leader), Dr. Bernd Steinmüller (building models and simulations), Dr. Günther Bergmann, Dr. Richard Bruno, Dr. Wilhelm Hermann, Dr. Reinhard Kersten, and Ing.
