WO WO2011011011A1
A system includes a turbine positioned on a building structure, wherein the turbine creates a low pressure area in the building structure. A first air flow path is positioned between the turbine and an interior of the building structure, and a second air flow path is positioned between the turbine and a thermal source. The system further includes a means for independently controlling a rate of air flow within the first and second air flow paths. The thermal source may include a solar collector to concentrate solar energy in a heated zone and a combustion area to provide thermal energy to the heated zone simultaneously with the concentrated solar energy from the solar collector. An electrical generator converts wind power acting on the turbine into electricity. A water collector delivers unpurified water to a first container, and a water purifier purifies the water in a second container. A thermal scavenging device extracts heat from the thermal source to heat the purified water, wherein the heated water is stored in a third container. The first, second, and third containers comprise identically sized containers.
