| Sumario: | Summary: Energy is everything - and we are used to this in the means of energy reduction for our buildings: climate design and climate engineering is nowadays standard in the design process. The more successful we are in this, the less energy we need to run the building during its useful life (which is good) and we can focus instead on an additional aspect: the embodied energy - the energy we need for the material production and construction process. Interestingly, the reduction in energy used in a climate-efficient building during its lifetime is equal to the energy consumption necessary to produce and install the building. This aspect triggers us to reconsider the design potentials of focusing on less energy in the construction. |
