The building energy performance gap (EPG) seriously restricts the improvement of building
energy efficiency. Currently, although many studies on EPG, it is not yet fully understood and …

Low-energy buildings (LEBs) play an important role in improving energy efficiency, reducing
energy use, and mitigating carbon emissions to achieve the 2050 global decarbonisation …

The COVID-19 pandemic changed the way people lived, worked, and studied around the
world, with direct consequences for domestic energy use. This study assesses the impact of …

This study investigates typical domestic energy demand profiles and their variation over
time. It draws on a sample of 13,000 homes from Great Britain, applying k-means cluster …

This paper evaluates the predictive power of building energy performance certificates on
home heat loss. Improving the insulative capacity of residential properties is a policy priority …

This paper evaluated the potential energy and life cycle cost (LCC) savings arising from the
deep energy retrofit of residential buildings. The cost optimal model was determined for …

Rapid renovation of Europe's inefficient buildings is required to reduce climate change.
However, evaluating buildings at scale is challenging because every building is unique. In …

A balanced approach that integrates renewables, energy efficiency, and energy sufficiency
is essential for achieving climate neutrality and sustainability. Residential buildings are …

This study aims to examine the current status of Turkey's energy consumption and energy
performance system and draw improvements. To this aim, this study adopted a qualitative …

Performance gap between predicted and measured building energy use can be caused by
simplifications and assumptions introduced in the building energy modeling process …
