Passive does not meanno heating. Just way less. Also works with temperature swings as evidented by the amounts of passive houses in the alps.

- baybal2 9y agoA good place for passive house is one where a house can cool down enough during the night and accumulate enough of heat during the day. If the temperature simply goes to -20 and stays there 24/7 for the rest of the seasons. You have to design a house differently. I'm not sure about Alps region. Are conditions there like that?
