| Summary: | The article aims to present the research results on the possibility of using alternative energy sources and
pro-ecological solutions as a tool supporting the protection of the cultural and natural landscape of the suburbs
of Warsaw. Near Warsaw, there are individual objects or complexes that constitute this area’s cultural
identity. The difficulty is to adapt them to current energy standards without interfering with their original
material, especially concerning wooden buildings. Instead of subjecting them to thermal modernization,
it is worth considering alternative solutions, such as photovoltaics. A wooden manor house in Warsaw-
-Białołęka was selected for detailed research. The study has shown that the optimal use of 26 photovoltaic
modules that were adopted with a total installation capacity of 7.54 kWp will be optimal for this type of
edifice. The simple payback time of the investment will be about ten years. To eliminate the negative aesthetic
effect of the installation, panels in the appropriate color should be used, or the use of photovoltaic
tiles should be considered, although the investment costs will increase. The study has shown indisputable
benefits, including economic ones, resulting from the solutions used. |
