TITLE Environmental Impact and Energy Efficient Result when Using Passive House |
PDF |
ABSTRACT Passive houses are those that make the most of bioclimatic architecture to create a building with high energy efficiency whilst ensuring suitable comfort throughout the year. These are homes designed to use minimally active heating or cooling systems, leading to near-zero energy consumption. A passive house is not just a set of high-quality windows or insulation materials but a complete approach to sustainable living. People took these currents of thought into account and began to consider the idea of buildings that used as little energy as possible without economizing on the comforts of the people living in them. The goal of a passive house is to attain near-zero energy consumption, significantly reducing utility bills and lessening the home’s impact on the environment. Unlike traditional buildings that rely heavily on active heating and cooling systems, a passive house utilizes natural resources like sunlight and airflow to maintain a comfortable interior climate. |
