Passive and active solar strategies together with the adoption of
energy conservation measures and the integration of new materials
and technologies can lead to a dramatic reduction of 75-90 per cent
in the energy consumption of the buildings. The objective of Task
13 of the IEA's Solar Heating and Cooling Programme was to advance
solar building technologies and demonstrate this potential by
designing and constructing buildings that met very low energy
consumption targets while maintaining a good indoor climate. This
revised second edition of this book presents the findings of the
Task 13 experts and includes the results of the monitoring
programme, conducted to determine the effectives of the techniques
and strategies adopted. This new edition also provides a detailed
explanation of this research programme in terms of how far the
expectations of the Task experts were met and highlights the
specific successes and lessons learned from the project.
