This development has been boosted by the recently established nearly zero energy building requirements that will soon be in use in all EU Member States, as well as similar long-term zero energy building targets in Japan, the US, and other countries. The research covered in this Special Issue provides evidence of how new technical solutions have worked, in practice, in new or renovated buildings, and also discusses problems and how solutions should be further developed. Another focus is on the more detailed calculation methods needed for the correct design and sizing of dedicated systems, and for accurate quantification of energy savings. Occupant behavior and building operation is also examined, in order to avoid common performance gaps between calculated and measured performance. These topics demonstrate the challenge of high performance buildings as, in the end, comfortable buildings with good indoor climate which are easy and cheap to operate and maintain are expected by end customers. Ventilation performance, heating and cooling, sizing, energy predictions and optimization, load shifting, and field studies are some of the key topics in this Special Issue, contributing to the future of high performance buildings with reliable operation.History of engineering and technologybicsscair exchange effectivenessair jetalternate operationbasketball hallbuildingbuilding energy modellingbuilding energy simulationbuilding pressure conditionCFDchiller performancechiller plantscondenser evaporative precoolingcontrol strategycoolingCOPcorner impinging jetcorner mixing ventilationdata-driven analysisdaylightdaylight factordaylight simulationsdaylight surveydecentralized ventilation unitdemand responsedemand side managementDHW energy useDHW heatingdisplacement ventilationdowndraughtdraught rateelectricity useenergyenergy efficiencyenergy flexibilityenergy performanceenergy performance modelingenergy performance of buildings directiveenergy signatureexisting buildingsfield measurementgray boxgreenhouseground source heat pumpheating modeheating powerHVAC systemshybrid displacement devicein situ measurementsindoor air qualityindoor climateIndoor Environmental Quality (IEQ)indoor temperature after renovationindoor temperature uniformityISO 52016-1ISO 7730Jaya algorithmload shiftinglocal air change effectivenessmeteorological reanalysis datamixing ventilationmonitoring measurementsMonte Carlo methodmultiple sensor nodesoccupant behavioroptimal energy managementoutdoor airpersonalized ventilationPro-GET-onE H2020qualitative controlretirement homerooftop air conditionerssatellite-based solar radiation datasingle room ventilation unitsizingskin temperaturesmart buildingssmart gridsmart readiness indicatorspace heatingstack effectstandard usestratificationstudent dormitoriesthermal analysisthermal comforttracer gasTRNSYSuser behavioruser input dataventilationventilation renovationwind pressureHistory of engineering and technologyThalfeldt Martinauth1297551Ferrantelli AndreaauthKurnitski JarekauthBOOK9910367742703321Energy Performance and Indoor Climate Analysis in Buildings3024535UNINA
