Reduction of the Energy Demand With Passive Approaches in Multifamily Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings Under Different Climate Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2020
Nearly zero-energy buildings (nZEBs) will be the standard in Europe in the future. How nZEBs are defined and therefore designed varies amongst Europe due to different national definitions/legislations. Furthermore, finding the optimal building design and

Twenty first century standards for thermal comfort : fostering low carbon building design and operation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Nearly 50% of energy consumed in the developed world is consumed in buildings. Despite regulation intent, many new buildings are energy profligate. Thermal comfort standards are partly responsible for this increase in consumption. In this volume, Roaf et

Nearly Zero Energy Building (nZEB) in Latvia [PDF]

open access: yesThe 9th International Conference "Environmental Engineering 2014", 2014
The main question studied during this study was what does it takes conversion of conventional building built according minimum energy efficiency requirement by existing building code to nearly zero energy building (nZEB). The aim of this study is to work out technical requirements to reach nZEB level in Latvia and test them in real building project ...

Cost-efficient Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings (NZEBs)

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Abstract The next level of energy performance of new buildings within the European Union will be the Nearly Zero-Energy Building (NZEB). A lot of work has been spent on pilot and demonstration buildings on this and even higher energy performance levels throughout many EU countries. However, most of the high performance buildings realised
