Vertdeco greenhouse storage

As the constructor of the photovoltaic greenhouse at Sauvaje (formerly Vertdeco) in Magny-les-Hameaux, a sustainable, self-sufficient structure has been built that generates solar energy. The integrated solar panels provide clean energy to the greenhouse and its associated spaces, reducing dependence on external fossil sources. This project underscores the commitment to sustainable technologies in greenhouse construction.

• Energy production and decarbonization

  The photovoltaic greenhouse utilizes advanced solar technology to generate sustainable energy. Solar panels are integrated into the greenhouse, enabling environmentally friendly energy production. This contributes to the greenhouse’s self-sufficiency and reduces dependence on external energy sources, such as fossil fuels.

• Wood-fired heating and energy recovery

  In addition to solar energy, Sauvaje makes use of wood waste from the maintenance of green spaces. Coarse pruning wood is shredded and processed into wood chips, which are then used as fuel for the wood-fired heating boiler. This boiler provides heating to both the greenhouses and the offices, closing the energy loop and minimizing the use of non-renewable fuels.

• Ecology and water management

  To optimize water usage, rainwater is collected and reused. A phytoremediation system naturally treats wastewater, contributing to ecological balance and reducing environmental impact.

These sustainable solutions are integral to Sauvaje’s mission to promote ecological sustainability and minimize the environmental impact of its operations. By combining solar energy and wood-fired heating, they can optimize their energy consumption while also having a positive effect on the environment.
