The expected increase of the penetration of distributed renewable energy technologies into the electricity grid is expected to lead to major challenges. As a main stakeholder, authorities often lack the appropriate tools to frame and encourage the transiti ...
Although indoor environmental quality (IEQ) and human health have been on the agenda of the green building industry, a new emphasis is being placed on building features that explicitly promote the experience of occupants. However, evidence of the performan ...
Natural light greatly impacts how a building is experienced by its occupants. It affects their well-being, notably from their health and biological clock perspectives, but also their perceived visual and thermal comfort, or their emotional response. If we ...
It is known that the ground represents a vast heat energy reservoir but the main challenge relies how technically exploit it in a sustainable way. Vertical BHEs represent a non-invasive application to improve the decarbonisation of the heating sector for d ...
Building energy codes have been implemented in Switzerland as well as across the world to reduce building energy consumption, however, due to the progressive effect of climate change phenomena and the precipitate change in occupancy patterns due to the glo ...
The fundamental goal of modern high-performance buildings is to achieve low environmental carbon footprint while securing indoor conditions that promote human health and well-being. Current procedures for indoor environmental quality (IEQ) assessment are o ...
In light of increasing sustainability requirements, one of the challenges related to the heritage building stock consists in finding a balance between preserving the existing architectural character and improving energy efficiency. The project presented in ...
Air pollutant exposure in workplace environments has been associated with health and cognitive outcomes of workers. While green building certification programs have been instrumental in promoting indoor air quality (IAQ), the present literature indicates i ...
The amount of heat flux passing through the building envelope directly affects the energy use for the thermal conditioning of the building. The ventilated cavity behind the traditional external claddings (e.g., vinyl siding, brick veneer) adjacent to the w ...
