Abstract

The large energy consumption of the building sector is mainly resourcing to active systems for cooling and heating of indoor spaces. According this, the external envelopes of offices and commercial buildings are systematically composed by large glazed areas that lead to high energy losses in the winter and large solar gains in summer.
