Optimum, technical and energy efficiency design of residential building in Mediterranean region
Highlights ► We design typical residential building in Mediterranean region from technical, energetic and economic point of view. ► Annual energy saving is 27.59% when best orientation, windows, shading device and thermal insulation thickness are optimally design. ► The Life Cycle Cost is reduced by 11.94% as compared to base case.
Abstract Jordan heavily relies on imported oil and gas for meeting its energy need as the same time the construction sector consumed more than half of the total electricity consumption in Jordan in 2008. In order to provide the occupants with thermal comfort at least cost, applying energy saving measures into early design stage can be significant to achieve this goal. This paper discusses an assessment of best orientation of the building, windows size, thermal insulation thickness from energetic, economic and environmental point of view for typical residential building located in Mediterranean region. The results show that about 27.59% of annual energy consumption can be saved by choosing best orientation, optimum size of windows and shading device, and optimum insulation thickness. The Life Cycle Cost (LCC) is reduced by 11.94%. The specific energy consumption per square meter is 64kWh/m2 a.
