- W1412594868 abstract "The energy-efficient design of buildings leans heavily on traditional methods, as developed by our ancestors; they are fundamental, sustainable concepts that exploit natural means to provide the interior microclimates for our living and working areas. The principles used today for low-energy building design are highly constrained by the needs of the housing market, national building codes and other restrictions that our ancestors never faced; available sites often do not allow free orientation or use of natural shade, lightweight construction avoids thermal mass, and generally the economics of house building tends towards minimum performance standards. Construction technology over the centuries has progressed from the provision of basic shelter and security to sophisticated city buildings capable of providing an indoor environment that is nowadays taken for granted: warmth, light and abundant energy, all in opposition to the natural climate. New residential buildings are being built to constantly improving energy efficiency standards, although internationally these standards vary widely. With the construction and operation of buildings accounting for some 40% of total carbon emissions in most developed countries, it is clear these standards will be tightened in future years to minimize energy consumption. The zero-energy house can be realized technically, and today, highly insulated and virtually airtight residences built to Passive House standards are being demonstrated; the demand for space heating in these buildings can be less than that for the hot water. There are at least three areas where ongoing developments in technology promise improved energy utilization efficiency in housing, these being heat pumps, combined heat and power (CHP), and advanced materials." @default.
