Vila Lussu is a sustainable tourism project under construction at the heart of the Ria Formosa Natural Park (Algarve). They hope to become a reference for neutrality, with energy supplied entirely from renewable sources.

The project is in its final stages and should open its doors in June 2023.

This campaign aims to finance the installation of:

air conditioning equipment,
heat pump for domestic hot water,
alarm system,
control and monitoring equipment for water and energy consumption through an application - SMAPPEE.

With this investment, Vila Lussu will have an energetic classification A+, the highest certification standard, reaching an estimated footprint of 0.4 t CO2 per year.

Promoter's offer - invest 200€ or more in this campaign and win a 200€ voucher to use at any time at Vila Lussu for full house rental for a minimum period of one week.

What is the impact?

Direct

Improving the building's energy efficiency and reducing energy consumption: installing the equipment to increase the building's energy efficiency and thermal comfort, such as a heat pump for domestic hot water, the most efficient and economical alternative for heating water, motion detectors for effective lighting control, an air conditioning system with the highest level of efficiency, and an energy management system that allows real-time monitoring of energy consumption throughout the building.

Indirect

Supporting environmentally conscious businesses: the hotel is already certified with energy class A+, the most efficient on the Adene scale. With the features of fully renewable energy consumption from own generation, domestic hot water, and space heating and cooling, they will become 100% more efficient than the minimum conditions required for new buildings.
