近日，在10月16日和17日，在德国菲林根海尔布伦举办的第八届欧洲电梯大会上，西班牙电梯公司Orona称其开发出了能达到零能源消耗的电梯设备。在一个名为“零能耗建筑和自给自足的电梯设备”的展示上，该公司代表们介绍了两台安装在西班牙公司总部的电梯。这两台电梯就安装在Orona零建筑里，这是一座设计有用来产生可循环能源的能源存储系统和光电转化面板的建筑。这两台电梯通过这些系统达到零能源消耗的目的。Orona公司称这项工作很大程度上推动了欧盟关于建筑能耗的指示的履行，该指示规定欧盟地区内的新建筑必须在2020年末达到“接近零能耗建筑”的要求。

　　ORONA UNVEILS ELEVATORS OFFERING ZERO NET ENERGY USE

　　Spanish company Orona has developed elevators that have achieved zero net energy consumption, the company announced during the eighth European Lift Congress Heilbronn, held October 16-17, 2018, in Villingen, Germany. During a presentation entitled “Zero Energy Buildings and Self-Sustainable Lifts,” company representatives gave details about two elevators installed at Orona’s Hernani, Spain, headquarters. The elevators are installed in the Orona Zero building, a structure designed with energy storage systems and photovoltaic panels used as a source for generation of renewable energy. The elevators use these systems to achieve zero net energy consumption. The company said its efforts are making an important contribution to the fulfillment of the European Union’s (EU) Directive on Energy Consumption in Buildings, which stipulates that all new structures within the EU must be “nearly zero-energy buildings” by the end of 2020.
