Building performance simulation (BPS) is the basis for informed decision-making of Net Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs) design. This paper aims to investigate the use of building performance simulation tools as a method of informing the design decision of NZE ...
The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) requires EU member states to establish a methodology for calculating the energy performance of buildings within a framework that includes the effect of active and passive solar systems as well as other c ...
This paper presents a method combining a top-down and a bottom-up approach, which has been developed to track energy saving opportunities. The top-down modelling method aims at correlating the energy consumption with the final products and the auxiliaries ...
High Performance Buildings (HPB), including Net Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs) and nearly Zero Energy Buildings (nZEB) are emerging as an important market in Europe and around the world. However, there are very few studies that aim to model the process of H ...
Buildings account for over 40% of the energy consumption in the United States, nearly 40% of which is attributed to lighting. The selection of a fenestration system for a building is a critical decision as it offsets electric lighting use as well as impact ...
As research in building energy demand simulation is reaching maturity, there is now a growing interest in the evaluation of the energy need of larger and/or pre-existing urban areas [1, 2, 3], to evaluate the energy performance associated with alternative ...
ABSTRACT : The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) requires EU member states to establish a methodology for calculating the energy performance of buildings within a framework that includes the effect of active and passive solar systems as well ...
