How the SíClimate System Works (Technology Explained Simply)
Sí-Climate System – Modular Technology Platform
SíAir – Cooling Without Electricity
Natural building cooling without power, compressors or chemicals – uses earth air, water and physics.
SíWater – Water & Thermal Storage
Cistern-based system for storing water, cold and heat – pressureless, durable and autonomous.
SíSand – Seasonal Heat Storage
Storage of large energy volumes in quartz sand at 40–600 °C – ideal for PV surplus energy and waste heat.
SíAgro Modules are optional agricultural add-on modules designed to expand storage, processing and value creation. They are freely combinable, site-specific and not mandatory.
SíCassette – Retrofit Interior Module
Modular interior unit for retrofitting buildings with heating, cooling and climate stabilisation – without construction work, pressure technology or refrigerants.
SíVillage – Autonomous Villages & Workforce Camps
Modular, energy-autonomous settlements for 15–30 houses – full integration of cooling, heating and water systems.
SíHouse – Autonomous Homes
Modular solid-house architecture with container frames – fully energy-autonomous through the Sí-Climate System.
Sí Emergency Heating Module (Base Module)
Permanently integrated, pressureless thermal storage and tempering system providing heating support in winter and passive cooling in summer. Operation is primarily non-electric, using thermal storage, earth- and concrete-based air ducts, and natural air buoyancy. Not designed for conventional passive houses with permanently airtight building envelopes and central mechanical ventilation systems (MVHR).
Spryox – PU Coating Systems
Professional PU sprays, foams and sealing systems for construction, energy applications and storage integration.
SíAir – Zero-Energy Cooling & Heating
A System Based 100% on Real Natural Principles
SíAir is a fully passive climate and thermal system that cools and stabilizes indoor temperatures without electricity, compressors or refrigerants.
It uses constant ground temperatures and water-based thermal storage to deliver noticeable cooling even under extreme heat - year-round, low-maintenance and completely off-grid.
How it works
- Outside air is drawn through a buried earth duct, taking on the natural ground temperature.
- A water cistern acts as a thermal buffer and stabilizes indoor climate day and night.
- Wind-induced inlet modules and an aerodynamic exhaust tower generate continuous airflow - without any moving parts.
- Only during absolute wind & solar stagnation does a small 10–20 W PV micro-fan assist the airflow.
Key advantages
- Near-zero-energy cooling, even at
35–45°C outdoor temperatures
- No refrigerants, no compressors, no wear and tear
- Stable indoor humidity – hygienic & mold-free
- Works in homes, resorts, stables, storage, agriculture and off-grid buildings
- Ideal for high-heat regions with expensive cooling (Mediterranean, Africa, South America, Australia, Southern USA)
What makes SíAir unique
SíAir does not rely on individual parts - it is a fully synchronized system of ground-air volume, thermal mass, airflow resistance and natural convection.
This creates a self-regulating climate system with no degradation, no mechanics and virtually no energy demand.
SíAir is the low-tech alternative to air conditioning and heat pumps - robust, affordable and perfect for autonomous buildings.
SíSand – Seasonal Heat Storage
Store Summer Heat. Use It in Winter.
SíSand stores heat in pure quartz sand — pressureless, chemical-free and almost maintenance-free.
- PV surplus or industrial waste heat is stored at 300–600°C
- Heat is retained for weeks to months
- Energy is released in winter or at night to support heating systems
SíSand is modular, extremely long-lasting and independent of global supply chains.
Ideal for buildings, villages and off-grid projects requiring stable, predictable heating without fossil fuels.
Because sand remains thermally stable, large energy volumes can be stored compactly.
Even small systems significantly reduce gas and electricity demand.
The technology works purely on physics, contains no moving parts and offers exceptionally long lifetime.
SíSand integrates easily into existing heating systems - old gas, oil or biomass boilers can remain in use and be supplemented.
Suitable for homes, commercial buildings, agriculture and seasonal energy projects requiring long-duration heat storage.
SíVillage – Autonomous Villages & Workforce Camps
SíVillage combines the Sí-Climate System with modular architecture to create fully self-sufficient settlements - ideal for hotels, municipalities and development regions.
A village typically includes 15–30 premium housing units (72–144 m²), outdoor kitchens, covered terraces and community spaces - all independent of external energy, water and wastewater infrastructure.
Core technology
- SíAir provides natural cooling without AC
- SíSand stores summer heat for winter
- Large water and hot-water cisterns provide supply, fire safety and microclimate
- A 48-V PV microgrid delivers safe, maintenance-free power for lighting, pumps and essential loads
All systems operate pressureless, robust and without chemical batteries.
Benefits
For hotels:
- Immediate workforce housing without burdening municipal grids
- Fast permitting due to reversible constructionNo long-term operating costs
For municipalities:
- Relief of local housing markets
- Reduced traffic pressure
- Sustainable infrastructure without political risk
For residents:
- Comfortable, cool indoor climate
- Hot water and essential services at near-zero cost
In development regions, SíVillage adds income, food security and local industry:
energy management, gardening, repair services, cistern construction, biogas, seedling production and more.
SíVillage is scalable, modular and deployable worldwide - from Europe to Africa, Asia and Latin America.
Sí-Agro Modules

Sí-Agro Modules (optional):
- Fish farming / ornamental fish
- Beekeeping / honey
- Mushroom cultivation
- Herbs (fresh & dried)
- Hydroponics / vegetables & fruit
- Horticulture & ornamental plants
- Smoking modules
- Drying modules (fruit, herbs)
- Juice & jam processing modules

SíHouse – Autonomous Homes for Any Climate
Sí-House combines a highly durable container-frame structure with the warm aesthetics of a Mediterranean stone house.
The modules are factory-built, assembled on-site and fully compatible with all Sí-Climate components:
- SíAir for zero-energy cooling & heating
- SíWater for thermal buffering & cold storage
- SíSand for seasonal heating
This allows Sí-Houses to reach up to 95% energy self-sufficiency - without complex technology, battery limits or rare materials.
The buildings are earthquake-resistant, stormproof, highly insulated and visually customizable with stone, plaster or modern façades.
Large windows, open layouts and optional outdoor-living zones create bright, modern spaces.
Thanks to modular design, units can be expanded, combined or operated as a full cluster.
Ideal for living, remote work, staff housing and off-grid installations.
