Our working fields

Our price policy

The name is a hybrid between Renewable Energy and the pleasure to work with this field - "go for it" - that means to work with Renewable Energy - OK !!!!

For more than 30 years we have consequently  worked with "renewable energy" - energy from sun, wind, biomass, compost and alike.

This does not need to make the building more expensive - but often the inclination to build with "belt and braces" increases the risk of "dobbleling".

It is very expensive to build in Denmark, because exchange relation between a good income and a "handicraft-hour" plus materials, both increasingly loaded with taxes and duty. This often leads to self-building or with-building if a housing can be possible. We often participate as "sparringspartners" in this type of building cases.

In Renewable Energy we do have middle wages - often loaded with expenses for transportation due to the geografical spreadness of the request for our disciplins.

Ecological responsible building is our whole idea. We work from the slogan "building with forethoughts".

We help within practical building or/and within the more theoretic consulting, planning, projecting, workshop and development.

Renewable Energy has own production of cast iron for mass stoves, we sell materials for mass stoves and different types of composting toilets.

We are 8 co-workers who cover a broad field of work.

We are awake to understand the ecological cohesion in construction and building work. We try to collect news within this field - but we also cooperate international with good constructors and builders, who give us inspirering inputs.

We deal with good handicraft traditions with humility and respect. For the same reason we do not spontaneous jump uppon a "smart trend" or "fancy report" - but we try to take it quiet so that we can do our job in daily life.

This does not mean that we are resting. When we do workshops, courses, building development and so on, it is clear for us, that we are allowed to take part in the frontline in the development of building in direction of reason.

The effect of this is small prints in the architectural outlook "the design of ecology" is easily recognized within the considarations to sun incident, east-north-west protection, inclination of the climate, choices of building materials etc.

This does not need to make the building more expensive - but often the inclinatio to build with "belt and braces" - increases the risk of "dobbleling".

Our firm or the coworkers do not work with the sky-high craftmen's wages, we hear about - they are far from our level. Very often is might be that if one chooses the interest aspects of good workmanship one at the same time chooses not to get the highest wage.

Our goal is to keep life in "the good workmanship" - generally with a pracical / timeless aesthetics, without seeming heavy and threatening rather filled with "light".

Because we are a small firm, we very often work together with other firms in bigger cases. Our linksite will soon be finished.

Our working fields are - with the greates importance to ecology:

  • Building of stoves (mason work)

  • Composting toilets supplied with sewage cleaning.

  • All-round mason work

  • All-round carpenter work

  • All-round thatching work

  • All-round architect work

  • Consulting for building technicians and self- and with-builders work within natural building

  • Courses and workshops in the same disciplines

  • Lectures on the same disciplines

  • Our own designs / products produces in Danish firms, who act up to rules, considering our enviroment.
