Abstract
In 2011, a pioneering architectural project in Germany, the BIQ Algenhaus, was deemed as “the first algae-powered building.” The design of this apartment building was based off the extraordinary efficiency of algae in capturing and storing solar energy, which then can be harvested as biofuel.
The performance of the BIQ Algenhaus was marginal, but the underlying science is compelling and sound, leading the way for the development of a highly efficient building.
