Description(English)	Ecocapsule is the first truly independent house powered by the solar and wind energy. Because of the small size, it can be placed everywhere on Earth. It contains everything needed for prolonged off-grid stay: efficient design, high performance thermal insulation, dual yield power system consisting of solar array and wind turbine, massive batteries to store surplus energy for a later usage. Everything is controlled by smart home system optimizing energy consumption. 　 Spherical shape of the Ecocapsule is carefully formed to minimize heat losses and maximize collection of the rain water and morning dew. Membrane water filters installed inside are designed to purify 99,999% of the bacteria and rendering any natural water source suitable for drinking. Even though small in size, each Ecocapsule can comfortably house two adults. Its efficient spatial layout allows you to enjoy convenience of the typical household facilities in off-grid conditions. Built-in kitchenette with running water, flushing toilet and hot shower are the luxuries of the hotel room available in the wilderness. Plenty of storage space also fits all your sport or research equipment. Substantial power output of the power systems is opening wide range of application scenarios. Ecocaspule can be used not only as cottage, skiing hut or pop-up hotel. It can be also used as small power plant or charging station for your electromobile. Ecocapsule is optimized for simple and smooth transportation. It can fit into standard shipping container, therefore it can be easily shipped globally without substantial shipping fees for oversized cargo. Container strategy allows us to utilize standardized transporters like truck, lorry or trailer and existing logistic routes.
