I even saw some solar heating with the vacuum tubes to provide hot water and radiant heat. But, the coolest way to heat your house in Germany is with wood and a kachelofen a high priced super crafted piece of combustion art. I have a friend that heat his entire house (guestimating around 2200 sq ft.) with only 1 square meter of oak wood ( holz starke!)

The only problem is you have to find a "Pocket of Freedom" to get one build or build your own. In Holland there is way to much red tape to get it done. That means I probably have to move to a place where an eathship is allowed to be build.
