The Solar Restaurant, situated on the south flank of the Matterhorn glacier paradise, features a fully optimised construction for energy efficiency, fulfilling all of the requirements for the Minergie-P standard.
Meanwhile the other prize-winning building, the New Monte Rosa Cabin of the Swiss Alpine Club, boasts an energy self-sufficiency rate of around 64 per cent, with an accommodation standard that had not been achieved before now.
