Energy performance assessment of residential building stock in Albania
For more than 15 years, Albania is dealing with measures towards reduction of energy consumption (especially electricity). Since one of the biggest shares of energy consumption is from the residential sector, this paper will analyze the energy consumption of residential building stock, in terms of energy performance. In order to decrease the energy utilization in Albania, we first need comprehensive studies of the actual condition of this sector from the perspective of energy use and energy performance. The chosen typology is load bearing masonry construction, apartment building, type 83/3 and 83/7. This typology of buildings are constructed during the communist era, meaning that they are prone to huge amount of energy consumption because of the lack of measures related to energy efficiency and energy conservation, also time degradation is another very important element to take into consideration while calculating the energy performance of the upper mentioned buildings.
