Toward cost-effective nearly zero energy buildings: The Dutch Situation [PDF]
Science and Technology for the Built Environment, 2016 To reduce the high energy demand and pollution of greenhouse gasses of the built environment, the Energy Performance of Building Directive came in 2010 with plans for the European Union member states. Buildings must be, according the plan, nearly zero energy and should reach this goal by implementing cost-effective (passive-) measures for a high energy

Assessing Nearly Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs) development in Europe
Energy Strategy Reviews, 2021 Decarbonising the energy sector is crucial to reach future climate and energy goals. As established by the Energy Performance of Building Directive recast, Nearly Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs) are the mandatory building target in Europe for all new ...

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

Achieving nearly zero energy buildings in Greece
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020 Abstract Energy consumption of buildings in Europe is still high despite their significant savings potential. The European Union has issued a number of directives to reduce energy consumption in buildings in its Member States. Each country has put in place the best minimum requirements to make its buildings more energy efficient.

Risk of Fungal Growth in Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings (nZEB)
Buildings, 2023 Research on nearly zero-energy buildings has addressed mainly the aspects of energy saving or technical and economic optimization, while some studies have been conducted on comfort and indoor air quality. However, the potential problems that may arise in
