Energy Efficiency of the Buildings: 4th Edition

Dear Colleagues,

In the developed world, both the consumption of energy and the environmental load continue to increase. One consequence of this is global warming, with buildings contributing significantly to the emission of greenhouse gases. Therefore, this Special Issue aims to publish papers that enhance the energy performance of buildings based on recent research results.

The technology utilized to save energy in buildings mainly includes thermal insulation, renewable energy sources and, to some extent, energy storage. Energy consumption is slightly affected by the control of heating–cooling systems and the value of comfort parameters.

In order to enhance the energy efficiency of buildings, we invite our colleagues to participate in this Special Issue by presenting their new research results in scientific papers.

We welcome the submission of innovative articles, reviews, case studies, analytical work on the optimization of numerical energy, as well as assessment papers concerning the construction of energy-efficient buildings.
