Vertical Greenery System (VGS) Renovation for Sustainable Arcade-Housing: Building Energy Efficiency Analysis Based on Digital Twin

A Multi-Scenario Zero-Energy Building Techno-Economic Case Study Analysis for a Renovation of a Residential Building

According to the previous pieces of research, the building sector consumes about 40 % of total yield energy and produce one-third of GHG pollution emission. This point shows the significant potential in two aspects of energy optimization and pollution reduction in this field. The purpose of this research as a case study is to construct a residential building and develop the paths for reaching a...

Integrated Power Management System for Zero-energy building: Techno-Economic Analysis

A complete understanding of the limits, barriers, and equipment available for the use of national energy resources is essential. This will increase the use of existing regional energy potential and pave the way for sustainable development. In this study, the Green Cottage power management system from a renewable energy source was designed and evaluated using a decision-making algorithm. Thirtee...

Developing a Rating System for Building Energy Efficiency Based on In Situ Measurement in China

Building energy consumption in China recently surpassed the US building consumption, and it is expected to increase significantly in the next decade pushed by the continuous population and urbanization increase. In response to that situation, the Chinese government introduced a series of building energy codes and rating systems to assess and enhance the building energy performance. The purpose ...

Autonomous Wireless Heat Energy Meter based on Piezoelectric Energy Harvester for Heat Energy Measurement in Building Complexes

This paper presents a platform for power autonomous wireless energy meter device using piezoelectric energy harvesters. This device can be mainly used for measuring the share of heat energy consumption in a fair manner in building complex with central heat energy system. In the suggested device, the piezoelectric energy harvester is also used as a flow-meter to reduce the power consumption of t...
