Commissioning for nearly zero-energy building projects
Construction Innovation, 2014Purpose – This article aims to reveal the benefits and opportunities that commissioning procedure has to offer for nearly zero-energy building (nZEB) projects. Another goal is to sculpture the commissioning process and, especially, commissioning consultant’s tasks to fit nZEB projects.

Solar facade module for nearly zero energy building
Energy, 2018Abstract Buildings consume 40% of the total primary energy use worldwide and it could increase if no energy efficiency measures are taken. Diffusion of nearly zero energy buildings is among building energy efficiency measures in many countries. Synergy of energy reduction in buildings and efficiency increase in district heating and cooling networks ...

Standard of nearly zero energy buildings in Germany
Mauerwerk, 2017AbstractThe European Union intends to reduce the energy consumption in the building sector. The European Directive 2010/31/EU requires the definition of national standards for nearly zero energy buildings. This article presents a research study supported as part of the research initiative “Zukunft Bau” of the Federal Ministry for the Environment ...

Smart micro grids for Nearly Zero Energy Buildings
2016 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting, 2016The paper presents a feasible model of architecture for the technical building systems (TBS) particularly suitable for Nearly Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs). NZEBs are buildings where the energetic consumption are optimized by means of solutions that drastically reduce both electric and thermal demand, while residual required energy has to be provided ...

Active House: Smart Nearly Zero Energy Buildings
2018The book provides an overview of the Active House (AH) vision, intended as a building design method “beyond” the passive approach for buildings of the future that will be more and more connected, smart and innovative. It offers a novel philosophical design approach in which buildings, new or renovated, are in balance with natural, renewable energies ...

Comparison of building technologies for nearly Zero Energy Buildings
2015Political targets in Europe focus on nearly zero energy buildings (nZEB) to be introduced by 2020. In Switzerland, cantonal energy strategies define a similar target for 2020. While much experience with high performance building envelopes according to MINERGIE-P ® exist, a large variety of concepts and standards for nearly zero energy buildings have ...

Edifici a consumo quasi zero. Nearly Zero Energy Building VS Nearly Zero Carbon Building
2019The need to move from the nZEB target to the nZECB one represents a concrete challenge for the construction world and for the industrial and professional sectors connected to it. The need to rethink the energy paradigm, on which our building culture is based, will determine the development and use of innovative materials and adaptive technologies with ...
