Research on the Model and Design of the Solar Energy Housing of Qinghai Farmers

Solar energy is a renewable and non-polluting resource. Many buildings have been applied with the solar energy technology passively or positively. Qinghai enjoys an exceptional natural advantage to exploit the solar energy. The focus of this study is to connect the solar technology with the living space of farmers and explore the value of solar energy in the rural housing through designing and application. Starting from "solar energy" and " native soil", through integrating the solar energy, energy saving, building design, local life into one system closely, the treatise discussed the living space “upgrading” of Qinghai farmers,among which it is realized to make use of the sustainable clean energy of nature rationally and take advantage of local resources in line with specific conditions, as well as respect the local regional culture and building characteristics, boost and improve the living condition of farmers.
