Solar greenhouses are often described using nebulous terms like "high-performance" or "energy-efficient" but this is what it simply comes down to: they are able to stay much warmer year-round, and thereby grow much more, than conventional greenhouses—without relying on fossil-fuel heating. 1, record 1, English, - passive%20solar%20greenhouse

Appelée aussi «serre solaire passive», la serre bioclimatique s'inscrit dans une démarche environnementale et durable. Ses composants et sa configuration l'isolent afin de réduire les pertes thermiques. Ainsi, elle stocke l'énergie solaire durant la journée et la restitue la nuit ou lors de séquences nuageuses. 1, record 1, French, - serre%20bioclimatique
