Abstract
The construction sector currently accounts for about a third of global energy consumption and a large part of this consumption is directly attributed to the design and construction of buildings. A wide range of measures has been adopted and implemented to actively promote better energy efficiency in buildings, including the ZEB (Zero Energy Building) concept, which is a realistic solution for reducing CO2 emissions.The zero-energy construction is discussed in this article. Energy resources have been described. NZEB's goal is not only to minimize the building's energy consumption by using passive design methods but also to design a building that reconciles energy needs with active techniques and renewable technologies.
Highlights
The construction sector currently accounts for about a third of global energy consumption and a large part of this consumption is directly attributed to the design and construction of buildings
While the goal of net zero energy building (NZEB) is to improving energy efficiency through passive design methods, they aim to create a structure that optimizes energy demand with active approaches and alternative energies
To actively promote improved energy performance of buildings, a wide range of policies and programmes have been adopted and implemented. One such policy is the net zero energy building (NZEB) concept, which is a reasonable choice for the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
Summary
But when there is excess power production, the buildings will send electricity back to the grid, in many cases selling this transferred power to the regional utilities provider throughout a Feed-In Tariff programme. To actively promote improved energy performance of buildings, a wide range of policies and programmes have been adopted and implemented One such policy is the net zero energy building (NZEB) concept, which is a reasonable choice for the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It is a potential method of reducing the amount of energy consumed by buildings, which can help to relieve the present global energy concerns of growing prices, climate change, and supply security [2], which are all being faced by the world. A reduction in the electricity consumption for electricity generation is implied by the NZEB, with the reduction in demand being met on an annualized basis by renewable power sources, which may be incorporated into the building design or delivered, for instance, as component of a collective green energy supply systems. Buildings with zero emissions generate as much energy from emission-free renewable sources as they consume
