Green & Energy Efficient Residential Building

This publication on residential buildings puts an end to rough carbon calculations of green certification tools like LEEDS, GBI, and Green Mark because they are hardly applicable for typical existing non-energy efficient residential buildings. By exploring the differences between a conventional red concrete building and three entire passive green buildings with the state-of-the-art mix of all tropically adapted eight passive modules, it paves the way to the establishment of low-carbon tropical buildings. The impacts of passive green architectures on the ambient temperature of the buildings were investigated in a five-year study primarily carried out in Malaysia. Furthermore, this work also demonstrates how an adapted passive house built according to the tropicalized principles brings about somewhat active, standardized, and affordable solutions for the vast majority of buyers.
