Architectural Design Strategies for Building-Integrated Photovoltaics in residential building renovation processes

Sergi Aguacil Moreno

Tomorrow's European cities are already largely built, as much of the existing building stock ¿ with a low level of energy performance ¿ will still be standing in 2050. Urban renewal processes therefore play an essential role towards their sustainable trans ...

On the necessity of improving the environmental impacts of furniture and appliances in net-zero energy buildings

Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Endrit Hoxha

There is now clear evidence regarding the extensive use of furniture and appliances in daily human life, but there is less evidence of their impact on the environment. Responding to this gap in knowledge, this study focuses on an assessment of the environm ...
