Passive house design-An efficient solution for residential buildings in Romania

摘要

In a temperate climate such as that of Romania, due to the high differences between comfort parameters and temperate environmental conditions, energy is needed in order to achieve a comfortable indoor environment in both winter and summer. Yet, due to the higher initial investment cost, in Romania, the new solutions for highly energy efficient buildings are rarely used. In order to increase the awareness of the investors on the long-term advantages of these solutions, pilot projects are necessary that provide real-time monitoring on the energy performance and behaviour of energy efficient buildings.
