It is a hybrid and autonomous system with solar PV panels and environment friendly process aiming the reduction of energy demand, costs and emissions. This energy model is a new sustainable standard about efficiency consumption energy (electrical and thermal demands) of a small hotel building, with the biomass gasification cogeneration technology. This system is one relevant contribute to certify the building agree to the new national legislation of building thermal behaviour.engBiofuelsEnergy efficiencyBiomassPower generation economicsEnvironmental economicsRenewable energy resourcesResistance heatingProductionCostsCogenerationbiofuelenergy efficiencyrenewable energysmall CCHPconference paper10.1109/iccep.2009.5212076
