Why Sustainable Energy in Luxury Market? Eco-tourism affords travelers the opportunity to directly benefit the people and places they visit by supporting conservation and protecting cultural heritage as well as economic development. Smart eco-moves like energy star high efficiency appliances, ecoconscious carpeting, and renewable energy sourcing round out the green structural amenities.

We recognize that sustainability means different things to different people. Environmental management, social responsibility, and economic viability are all at the forefront of sustainable business management.

Your challenge: Determine how the principles of sustainability fit the unique attributes of your organization.

Xerendipity approach: We provide you with the tools and expertise you need to assess your impacts, chart a course of action, and thoughtfully manage your business while protecting the natural, cultural, and economic assets you depend on. Are you looking to validate your sustainability efforts, or receive recognition you can utilize to tell your Sustainability Story to customers? Are you ready to take charge of your future and contribute to the long-term health of your business, your community, and the planet?

Xerendipity flagship systems, the Sustainable Energy in Luxury Market (SELM) provides you with the tools you need to design and execute your own sustainability product and brand plan, built on a foundation of globally-recognized best practices. Along the way, you’ll set goals that guide your long-term thinking, while identifying consistent opportunities for return on investment.

Travel businesses, like luxury resorts, face a multitude of challenges: rising costs, shrinking resources, and increasing pressure to raise the bar on sustainable practices to reduce environmental impacts.

Leading-edge businesses are turning challenge into opportunity. These industry leaders understand that long-term success requires them to be stewards of the destinations they serve, while demonstrating how their actions make a difference in order to engage customers and increase brand loyalty. At Global Off-Grid LifeStyle, Sustainable Energy in Luxury Market are among our core competencies, and our solutions are globally recognized as best-in-class by the best luxury companies world wide and also government institutions as Military, Army, Marine Corp. and Telecommunication firms.

We’ve developed a suite of solutions that help businesses report on their carbon emissions and capitalize on their CSR in bold new ways, ultimately galvanizing the brand and the company’s overall sustainability platform.

Businesses - Carbon Emissions and Offset Solutions: Integrated and effective ZERO-Emissions management solution that goes beyond industry best practice and environmental compliance.

Report on impacts, support high quality offset projects, and demonstrate your social responsibility. Destinations: ZERO-Carbon Tourism Planning Reduce vulnerability and increase resilience to climate change, access short- and longterm financing mechanisms, adopt cost-effective energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies and implement a scalable action plan that supports ZERO-Carbon tourism development.

Carbon Offset Portfolio: We support place-based ZERO-Emission projects and provide a portfolio of innovative offset project options. Learn more about our approach, and explore the various initiatives we have supported around the world. Our Carbon Emission and Offset Partners: Our partners from around the world work with us to install and manage our systems in the luxury travel and tourism industry. With each organization championing a different approach we welcome you to learn more about the ways you can work directly with us to bring participation directly to the customer experience.

The unit is an ocean shipping 6 feet container that has above its roof an inclined photovoltaic (PV) array that can produce electricity and harvest rain water. Solar vacuum tubes on South side will warm up water for house uses or to distill salt or contaminated water in the inner 200 liter tank. The container is the most robust structure conceivable, easy to transport and place. It can be partially buried or covered with wood, green and garden.

The solar water heater system is an indoor stainless steel tank, properly insulated in order to keep nigh-time temperature drop around 5°C in standard conditions, that contains around 200 liters of liquid (simple water, anti-freezing water, salt or contaminated water, etc…) to be heated by 20 vacuum glass tubes (check SPARE PARTS) outside the unit on the South side and by an electric backup. The vacuum tubes have a glass heat pipe on the top, i.e. a small glass dome that gets inside the tank and can quickly heat up water and prevent water to get out in case for some reasons the external glass tubes brakes. Outside, below these tubes there is room for other uses, for example a small green house or an outdoor wood deposit. On the same side there is the outlet connection of the heat exchanger that can instantaneously warm up water if it flows through it and the outlet of the clean water (not drinkable, we suggest to install our UV filter, see LIFESTYLE in OPTIONALS). This heat exchanger inside the tank is hermetically separated from the inner liquid preserving the quality of the input water and have a negligible pressure drop.

The photovoltaic roof is composed of six 180Wp mono-cristalline solar modules connected in parallel to a control panel with fuse protection (and spares) for safety standards. The panel is connected to a charge controller to charge batteries (we suggest 6 lead gel batteries, 12V and 120Ah each for a total energy storage of 8.64 kWh) and prevent batteries from deep discharge or other potential damages. The number of batteries is actually overestimated but allows to save always more than 30% of battery charge raising battery lifetime (floating life at 20°C is designed for 12 years but ordinary lead batteries with decent maintenance have been working for more than 30years). A solar inverter (see OPTIONALS) can be connected to these batteries to provide standard (220V or 110V at 50Hz) alternate current (AC) that can be taken from a plug next to it and directly wired through a 30m wire (see OPTIONALS) to the house ready to plug, on a multi-outlet (see OPTIONALS) on the other end of the wire, any device. The batteries and the electric components are all mounted on the opposite wall from the water systems in order to protect it from possible water leaks or splashes and below the batteries additional storage space is available for extras (like bigger pumps, hydrogen electrolyze, UV water filter, wind turbine accessories, etc…).

Our patented water cleaning solution integrates renewable energies and water treatments in the OGB. Eventual exceeding heat (produced by both the solar thermal vacuum tubes outside the box and by an electric water heater inside the tank fed by the exceeding electricity from photovoltaic once the batteries are full and when there is no demand from the house) is used to warm up the liquid inside the tank up to its boiling temperature. When the boiling point is reached the water vapors (steam) goes up in a stainless steel corrugated pipe that runs on the West wall of the OGB until the vapors is condensed. There is an exit after our patented separator, for the condensed water (pure H2O) that pours in a removable 30 liters storage allowing domestic uses (washing, ironing, potential drinking,â&#x20AC;Ś). The patented separator sends out of the OGB (Northern wall) the residual vapors, preventing the hot vapors from damaging the vessel or raise moisture inside the box. In case of sea (and not contaminated) water the pure distilled water (H2O) is mixed back again with sea water (a cup in a full 30 liters tank, see PERFORMANCES) in order to get enough minerals to be defined drinkable. An electric pump is able to pump water outside from the 2000 liters storage to be used directly or warmed up through a passage in the solar water heated (i.e. the pump is indoor connected with the cold water inlet of the solar water heater tank). This pump can push 17 liter per minute of water absorbing 450W and lifting the water up to 30 meter (see OPTIONALS).
