Alternative energy sources intrigue people more and more, since saving energy is a very significant matter in these days.

Galerakis Construction manufactures completely autonomous – energy wise – buildings, installing systems of optimum quality, using solar, aeolian, geothermal energy as well as L.P. Gas.

Solar Energy

Greece enjoys the sunshine during almost all seasons of the year.

Therefore, we have to exploit this privilege, by installing technology which uses the thermal and electromagnetic radiation of the sun. This alternative energy source is renewable and environment friendly.

The solar thermal systems, using solar absorbers, convert solar energy to thermal energy and thus, we meet the need for hot water supply. The solar photovoltaic systems convert the solar energy into electrical energy. They can be used for covering residential needs or even for central electrical energy generation. The photovoltaic systems produce direct current and function even under bad weather conditions. They are light and they are easily installed in the ground, roofs and buildings.

Their advantages are:

• High reliability.
• Long life duration.
• Capability of wide scale applications.
• They don’t pollute the environment.
• There is no function and maintenance cost.
• They are completely silent.

Aeolian Energy

The kinetic energy of wind is converted into electrical energy, by means of wind turbines. Wind turbines technology is considerably developed in Greece, fact that it is attributed to the recent energy market release.

Geothermal Energy

Geothermal means \"Heat from the Earth\". This heat that flows from the earth’s hot interior (ground rocks or fluids) of temperature of 25ο C is used for heating buildings as well as for various industrial or agricultural applications. Moreover, the geothermal energy concerns the use of the heat or the thermal capacity of surface or low depth formations and water for heating and air-conditioning with the help of geothermal heat pumps. Geothermal energy has proved to be reliable, economic, environmentally friendly and renewable.

LP Gas

LP Gas is a mixture of gases, which is stored as liquid in cylinders or special tanks. It is used for residences and buildings heating as well as for supplying gas cookers. LP gas is completely safe, because of the safety devices (gas detectors) that are provided, when the installation takes place. It is also environment friendly and cheap as fuel.

Galerakis Construction designs your energy system carefully, according to your building’s requirements and guarantees its impeccable function.
