Feasibility of achieving net-zero energy performance in high-rise

A limited area for harvesting solar energy, low efficiency of technologies available, and finally low density of solar energy are the key hindrances that make achieving net-zero energy performance using solar energy difficult. For high-rise buildings, reaching the net-zero energy goal is even more difficult, mainly because of their large floor

6 FAQs about [High-rise residential buildings come with free solar energy]

How can solar energy be used in high-rise buildings?

Can high-rise buildings gain solar radiation?

Finally, high-rise buildings have great potential to gain solar radiations because of their vast facades. Analyzing case studies illustrate that applying solar passive strategies in high-rise buildings have a meaningful effect on reducing the total annual cooling and heating energy demand.

How much solar energy can a residential high-rise generate?

In addition, the solar potential simulations also showed that for 11-floor residential high-rises with side balconies, the total annual solar energy potentials on facades were 3.3–4.8 times of the solar potential on roof areas (with 950 kWh/m 2 year for solar radiation on roof area).

Can solar passive strategies be used as an alternative in high-rise buildings?

Therefore, by considering the use of solar passive strategies and active technologies as an alternative in high-rise buildings, this study tries to fill some of the current gaps as much as possible and its proposed fundamental message is changing architects’ and construction builders’ view in dealing with the subject. 1.1. Research methodology

Where are energy efficient buildings built?

beginnin g of the construction of energy efficient buildings around the world. Construction of the houses with low energy consumption are successfully implemented in Europe. According homes. Denmark, Germany and Finland are the leaders of this movement.

Should high-rise buildings be net-zero energy?

Only if building heights are limited to 5–10 floors does the available solar energy, and thus the permitted EUI, reach 50–75 kWh/m 2 a. Therefore, we recommend that policymakers not require high-rise buildings to be net-zero energy, unless they are prepared to limit building heights to 5–10 floors. 1. Introduction
