    Sofia-Natalia Boemi; Olatz Irulegi; Mattheos Santamouris
    978-3-319-20831-2
    2016
    Edition 1
    • A consolidated, complete information resource on the characteristics, challenges and energy potential of buildings in temperate climates
    • Provides sorely needed benchmarks for understanding relative energy performance levels of buildings, as judged against current regulations, best case scenarios and expected mid-term trends
    • Explains the design techniques and technologies needed to achieve required energy efficiency, comfort and occupant health performance levels, with underlying theory supported by real examples
    • Addresses such key topics as how the building performance may vary with climate change, increasing resiliency to heat waves and transitioning toward Net Zero Buildings
    • Emphasizes the differences between new construction and retrofitting, with a clear identification of performance losses in the latter
    • Evaluates the potential contribution of the building stock to GHG abatement as function of the retrofitting intensity
    • Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
