“…This high thermal inertia of these walls provides comfort in summertime but not in wintertime, since openings are very small, reducing solar gains. The small openings for windows avoid the harsh winter weather but it is also due to the stone's low resistance to horizontal loads (Cabral et al 2013)…”

“…Alternative energy supply can also contribute to economic and community development as they help create local jobs, and promote economic development with clean energy resources. Despite the positive benefits, there are still only very few cases of environmental and sustainable rehabilitation or retrofitting (Carrapiço and Neila-González, 2014), especially rehabilitation research projects covering vernacular conservation and adaptive re-use (Cabral et al, 2014). Previous studies have evaluated the benefits of passive energy efficient methods of vernacular buildings in hot climates (Givoni, 1992;Fathy, 1986) and the potential for such passive strategies to affect for example, energy use both for cooling during the summer and heating in the winter (Ryan, 2011).…”
