This book evaluates the impact of climate conditions on adaptive strategies, diagnoses prosumers' energy patterns in Positive Energy Buildings, and assesses the social and global dimensions of energy poverty.
Addressing the pressing challenges of energy efficiency and climate change adaptation, the book investigates the intricate realm of low and positive energy buildings, demonstrating innovative approaches essential for an environmentally inclusive society.
With a focus on thermal comfort, climate change effects, and energy efficiency, the chapters present a diverse array of studies from tropical and Mediterranean climates to worldwide practical cases. By merging dynamic and adaptive energy measures, this book pioneers an holistic approach, crucial for policymakers, stakeholders, academics, and researchers in propelling the transition toward sustainable energy solutions.
