Construction, as an industry sector, is responsible for around
one-third of the total worldwide energy usage and about 20% of
greenhouse gas emissions. The rise in the number of buildings and
floor space area for residential and commercial purposes has
imposed enormous pressure on existing energy sources.
Implementations such as efficient usage of building energy systems,
design measures, utilization of local energy resources, energy
storage, and the use of renewable energy sources to meet
electricity demands are currently under development and deployment
for improving the energy performance index. However, integrating
all such measures and the development of nearly zero-energy and
zero-emission buildings is yet to be explored. In this book, the
different control techniques and intelligent technologies used to
improve the energy performance of buildings are illustrated. Every
building energy control system has a two-fold objective for energy
and comfort requirements to achieve a high comfort index (for
thermal, visual, air quality, humidity, and various plug loads) and
increase the energy performance index. The most significant aspect
in the design of a building's energy control system is modelling.
All the components, methodologies, and processes involved in
developing a renewable energy-driven building are covered in
detail. This book is intended for graduates and professionals
working towards the development of a sustainable built environment
using renewable energy sources.
