Providing 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.
