Life Cycle Energy of Low Rise Residential Buildings in Indian Context
Open Journal of Energy Efficiency, 2014 Life cycle energy of the building accounts for all energy inputs to the buildings during their intended service life. Buildings need to be constructed in such a way that energy consumption in their life cycle is minimal. Life Cycle Energy (LCE) consumption data of buildings is not available in public domain which is essentially required for building ...
