Abstract
Current technologies and those which will be made available in the near future will allow a significant reduction of energy consumption in buildings, and reach the challenging goal of the energetically self-sustained house. Starting from the concept of the “7 litre house”, the building that consumes no more than 7 equivalent litres of fuel per square meter per year, to the “passive house”, whose energetic balance is zero, up to the more recent prototype of “active house”, the house that delivers energy to the public net, huge steps forwards have been made in latest 20 years, made possible by the research on new materials and technologies for delocalised energy production.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
