THE PASSIVHAUS STANDARD IN THE MEDITERRANEAN CLIMATE: EVALUATION, COMPARISON AND PROFITABILITY

open access: yesJournal of Green Building, 2015
The Passivhaus standard (PS) provides the foundations for improving energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gases in the housing sector. In the current Spanish context, several energy certification alternatives are beginning to be used for compliance ...

The Passivhaus Standard in the Spanish Mediterranean: Evaluation of a House’s Thermal Behaviour of Enclosures and Airtightness [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2019
Few houses have been built in the Spanish Mediterranean in accordance with the Passivhaus (PH) standard. This standard is adapted to the continental climates of Central Europe and thorough studies are necessary to apply this standard in Spain, especially

Evaluation of a modular construction system in accordance with the Passivhaus standard for components

open access: yesJournal of Building Engineering, 2023
[Abstract] Passivhaus is an energy performance standard for buildings that has been deeply analyzed in the current scientific literature. However, the study of the Passivhaus standard for components and the use of certified components in the construction of new nearly-zero energy buildings have not been thoroughly discussed.

Passive house optimization for Southern Italy based on the “New Passivhaus Standard” [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The IEE Passive-On project has drafted a proposal to adapt that Standard to the conditions that characterize Southern Europe, which is described in this paper together with its rationale.

Evaluating the energy-saving potential of earth-air heat exchanger (EAHX) for Passivhaus standard buildings in different climates in China

open access: yesEnergy and Buildings, 2023
The significance of constructing low-carbon buildings has been on the rise because of the growing public concern about global warming and energy prices. The Passive House (or Passivhaus) standard is widely applied throughout Europe to reduce building energy consumption.

Comparative Analysis of Overheating Risk for Typical Dwellings and Passivhaus in the UK

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
There is growing concern that airtight and well-insulated buildings designed to limit heat loss in temperate and cold climates could unintentionally elevate the risk of overheating in summers.

Circular solutions in developing countries: Coping with sustainability tensions by means of technical functionality and business model relevance

open access: yesBusiness Strategy &Development, Volume 6, Issue 1, Page 75-94, March 2023., 2023
Abstract To foster sustainable development, transition to circular economy should happen globally. Lately, however, the implementation of circular solutions has been particularly slow in the developing countries where these solutions could bring about particularly positive changes.

Future proofing a building design using history matching inspired level‐set techniques

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series C (Applied Statistics), Volume 70, Issue 2, Page 335-350, March 2021., 2021
Abstract How can one design a building that will be sufficiently protected against overheating and sufficiently energy efficient, whilst considering the expected increases in temperature due to climate change? We successfully manage to address this question—greatly reducing a large set of initial candidate building designs down to a small set of ...
