The reconversion project of ex fallout shelter in Wilhelmsburg district in Hamburg is an exemplary energy renewal on urban scale, important both socially and environmentally. A combined system on 3 levels of renewable energy is provided: solar energy, biomass plant and cogeneration. The solar collectors are installed on the roof and PV panels on the south façade, on an exterior steel structure, slightly detached from the building, leaving shape recognizable. Every energy production system has been included within the structure through minimal interventions, making it instantly recognizable from the outside.
