Sunlight Autonomy for Sustainable Buildings and Cities : Maximizing daylight potential outdoors and indoors
Daylight, both outdoors and indoors, is essential for human well-being. However, daylight provision often faces challenges in various climates and locations, due to factors such as shortcomings in regulations, urban densification, deregulation or special exemptions, and the limitations of existing daylight and sunlight evaluation methods. To address these issues, we propose the Sunlight Autonomy, a new methodology and set of metrics, that aims to overcome the limitations of existing early-stage daylighting metrics and is valuable for urban planning and architectural design purposes. ; Theme of the conference: Daylight in the service of Sustainable Development Goals: a colourful spectrum of opportunities QC 20240605
