Overheating investigation in UK social housing flats built to the Passivhaus standard [PDF]
Building and Environment, 2015 Abstract Global environmental and energy concerns have led to a rapid growth in mandating the construction of more energy efficient dwellings in the UK. This is particularly true for the social housing sector which is partly founded by the government and it is expected to lead the way in this respect.

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

Refurbishing an Existing Apartment Block in Mediterranean Climate: Towards the Passivhaus Standard [PDF]
Energy Procedia, 2017 The Passivhaus standard, although widely appreciated in cold regions, is seldom regarded as a reference in the energy renovation of existing buildings in warm countries. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of a series of strategies for the energy refurbishment of an existing apartment block in Southern Italy, based on dynamic energy simulations. The

Performance gap in a multi-storey student accommodation complex built to Passivhaus standard
Building and Environment, 2021Abstract Although the Passivhaus design is rapidly spreading worldwide, limited studies have examined its actual performance during operation. This study used Australia's first student accommodation built to the Passivhaus standard as a case study to assess the gaps between design prediction and in situ performance.

Active to be passive A reasoned development of the Passivhaus standard for two different climates
Third International Conference on Advances In Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering- ACSEE 2015, 2015In the era of “everything at once” the main objective seems to look for a standard, an adaptable prototype compliant with requirements on each situation. The architectural designing process has been affected by this phenomenon too, with the purpose of reaching the new european guidelines of high energy-efficient buildings, reducing energetic ...

Passive house optimization for Southern Italy based on the “New Passivhaus Standard”
2009The 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. Compared with the original definition, one of the main changes is the introduction of explicit requirements on internal comfort during summer, in parallel to a limit ...
