Table Of ContentIntroduction Ecologically responsible environments Sustainable energy policies and standards Low energy architecture in hot climates Low energy architecture in cold climates Daylighting strategies for low energy architecture Comfort models in low energy architecture Sustainable advanced building materials Building energy efficient HVAC systems Building integrated photovoltaics Performance modeling in low energy architecture Beyond green, the regenerative design
SynopsisProviding a complete and in-depth overview of the available knowledge in the area of low energy and low carbon architecture. The scope of this edited book includes several important topics ranging from chapters giving a broad view of the progressing models in ecologically responsible environments to other chapters focussing on recent advances in design strategies and building technologies in low energy heating, cooling, daylighting, materials, and building sustainable systems. Two other essential topics are covered, providing a link between theory and implementation: sustainable energy policies/standards and performance modeling in low energy architecture. Finally, the book will give the readers insight into the future of low energy and low carbon architecture in the beyond-green era and discussed in the broader context of the progressing theories of regenerative design.
