Mit dem Inkraftreten der der Energie-Einspar-Verordnung EnEV 2006 und der Einführung des Energieausweises für Gebäude innerhalb der EU ist ein starker Anstieg des Auftragsvolumens im Bereich der Gebäudesanierung zu erwarten. Dieser Band ist ein Ratgeber mit konkreten Hinweisen zur Umsetzung energetischer Sanierungsmaßnahmen, der den Planer vom Entwurf bis zur Ausführung begleitet. Alle energetischen Fragen sind entsprechend der Zielsetzungen behandelt. Großmaßstäbliche Detailzeichnungen dokumentieren konstruktive Lösungen zur Behebung baulicher Schwachstellen. Ein Überblick über anlagentechnische Maßnahmen hilft bei der Beurteilung von Möglichkeiten, Kosten und Wirtschaftlichkeit. Dass nachhaltige Verbesserungen nicht allein durch energetische Maßnahmen erreicht werden können, sondern dass die Betrachtung des gesamten Gebäudes wichtig ist, zeigen realisierte Projekte. Die Beispiele sind jeweils mit Zustandsanalyse, Darstellung der Maßnahmen und deren Bewertung dokumentiert. Now that the Energy Certificate for Buildings has been introduced throughout the European Union, we can expect to see a sharp rise in the number of building renovations. This volume is a practical guide with concrete recommendations for realizing energy-related renovation measures - it accompanies the planner from design to execution. All energy-related issues are treated according to their goals. Large-scale detail drawings document constructive solutions for removing structural weaknesses. An overview of installation engineering measures helps to evaluate possibilities, costs, and economic viability. The book uses realized projects to demonstrate that sustainable improvements cannot be achieved by energy-specific measures alone - it is also important to consider the building as a whole. All of the examples are documented with a state analysis as well as a depiction and assessment of the measures taken.

Building Energy Flexibility and Demand Management looks at the high penetration of intermittent renewable energy sources and the need for increased flexibility. Ensuring electrical power systems adapt to dynamic energy demand and supply conditions, the book supports the transition to a renewable energy future with current fluctuating power generation. By facilitating the penetration of renewable energy sources into the building sector and balancing electricity supply with demand in real-time, this book will provide fundamental concepts, theories, and methods to understand, quantify, design and optimize building energy flexibility. In addition, the book also provides case studies with emerging technologies to enhance building energy flexibility and demonstrate how demand management strategies can utilize energy flexibility for demand reduction and load shifting. It will be useful for all those researchers and engineers working in flexible energy systems and advanced demand side management strategies. --

In this book we seek to approach the architecture-energy combination and its relationship to human comfort and the environment .There are chapters on thermal comfort, low energy architecture dealing with various criterion for comfort in different parts of the World. The book also seeks to understand how previous generations lived in harsh climates and without abundant sources of energy, yet managed to design and build appropriate dwellings providing both comfort and harmony with the environment. Other chapters deal with the bioclimatic concept in Vernacular Architecture; the major rol
