Architectural Integration and Design of Solar Thermal Systems
Although solar thermal systems are technologically mature and cost effective, they have not yet been sufficiently used in building design to play an adequate role in the reduction of fossil fuel consumption. One main hindrance to adoption is the generally low architectural design quality of the building integration of these thermal systems. Starting from a definition of architectural integration quality and related criteria, this book is intended to help both architects and manufacturers improve their design work.
Technical and economic potential for photovoltaic systems on buildings
Finite fossil resources require the exploitation of alternative energy sources like photovoltaics. A methodology for the economic potential assessment of photovoltaic installations on buildings including building facades has been developed. It is based on detailed irradiation simulations and a combination of geographically referenced and statistical data and has been applied to the German building stock for 2015. A prognosis for the potential development until 2050 is given.

Éco-confort
Concevoir et réaliser un bâtiment à la fois sain, confortable, à basse consommation d'énergie et à faible impact sur l'environnement ? Oui, c'est possible! Claude Alain Roulet, ingénieur spécialiste du domaine, dévoile ici l'ensemble des mesures techniques simples à mettre en oeuvre afin d'obtenir une qualité d'air intérieur optimale et un confort thermique, acoustique et visuel idéal, grâce aux opportunités offertes par les principes de développement durable. Clair, pratique, abondamment illustré et tout en couleur, cet ouvrage s'adresse à tous ceux engagés dans un projet de construction ou de rénovation; il constituera en particulier une référence précieuse en vue de l'optimisation d'installations pré-existantes.

Construction et énergie
Cet atlas, dont l’organisation est fondée sur le cycle de vie d’un bâtiment, passe en revue tous les paramètres constructifs liés à la performance énergétique et au développement durable, en se basant sur le cadre législatif engagé par la Communauté Européenne; il se présente dès lors comme un outil indispensable aux architectes, ingénieurs et designers, afin de leur permettre de construire et d’exploiter leurs constructions dans un véritable esprit de performance énergétique. Un atlas aussi exhaustif qu’indispensable! [Source : 4e de couverture]
Holistic Approach for Decision Making Towards Designing Smart Cities
This edited volume examines strategies to make future cities more sustainable. The aim of these and other initiatives of the recent past, is to transform our cities into smarter cities. Thereby, these solutions are determined to boost clean electricity and pollution reduction, improve the life of citizens and transform city environment and regulatory structures. As the EUs ambition is to become carbon-neutral until 2050, the outlined projects also consider fostering economy prosperity and social wellness and environmental sustainability. The greatest challenge being already built urban spaces that need to be transformed quickly and at low costs. The book will analyze future smart cities in three centric dimensions: energy and sustainable development, smart infrastructures for smart cities, social involvement and economic prosperity. With its global approach, the volume is highly useful for professionals involved in city planning and urban ecology.
