Improving the energy performance of existing buildings through energy retrofit measures is a great opportunity for developing sustainability in our structures and developing a green building economy. Green Energy Audit of Buildings considers this opportunity with a new and modern interpretation of the classic methodologies.   This comprehensive guide to green energy audits integrates energy audit and LEEDŽ  methodologies to focus on energy and environment as strategic elements. In addition to these methodologies, Green Energy Audit of Buildings includes 45 check-list for field surveys and 120 technical sheets of possible energy retrofit actions that can be applied to existing real-world cases.   Covering both the technical and economical points of view, Green Energy Audit of Buildings provides a comprehensive understanding and method for analyzing buildings and facilities in order to promote sustainability. Engineers, architects, energy assessors and managers in charge of building maintenance will all find this a key reference as well as lecturers, students and researchers looking to develop their understanding of sustainable buildings. 410 0$aGreen energy and technology. 606 $aSustainable buildings 606 $aBuildings$xEnergy conservation 606 $aGreen technology 615 0$aSustainable buildings. 615 0$aBuildings$xEnergy conservation. 615 0$aGreen technology. 676 $a720.47 700 $aDall'O'$b Giuliano$0339457 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910741187803321 996 $aGreen Energy Audit of Buildings$93554227 997 $aUNINA
