Towards Nearly Zero Energy Buildings in Europe: A Focus on Retrofit in Non-Residential Buildings
Buildings are the focus of European (EU) policies aimed at a sustainable and competitive low-carbon economy by 2020. Reducing energy consumption of existing buildings and achieving nearly zero energy buildings (NZEBs) are the core of the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) and the recast of the Energy Performance of Building Directive (EPBD). To comply with these requirements, Member States have ...
متن کاملModelling Zero Energy Buildings: parametric study for the technical optimization
This study was born in the context of new challenges imposed by the recast of the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive. The aim of this work is to develop strategies to identify and investigate the relationship between decisional variables within a nZEB design concept, providing a useful method to deal with a huge number of simulations corresponding to a large number of building configu...
متن کاملToward the design of zero energy buildings (ZEB) in Iran: Climatic study
In this research, a combination of passive and active methods is used to design a nearly zero energy building in four major climatic regions of Iran, including cold, mild, dry-warm, and wet-warm ones. The annual energy consumption analysis is performed using DesignBuilder® software. The passive strategies include Trombe Wall, blue roof, and thermochromic windows, and the active methods are usin...
متن کاملDemand Response and Energy Storage for Zero Energy Residential Buildings
The EU climate and energy targets and the decreasing costs have been leading to a growing utilization of solar photovoltaic generation in residential buildings. However, even in buildings with the same level of yearly generation and consumption the mismatch between the demand and the photovoltaic generation profiles leads to high power flows between the household and the grid, which is an ineff...
متن کامل‘Buildings as Power Stations’: an energy simulation tool for housing
The concept of ‘Buildings as Power Stations’ (BAPS) represents a major shift in the way that electricity is generated, stored and used. Buildings are no longer simply consumers of electricity, but active players in the electric power system. Reducing energy demand to ‘PassivHaus’ levels of performance and the full integration of photovoltaic modules and wind turbines with buildings is itself a ...
