“…The adoption of PCMs offers dual advantages to HVAC systems: firstly, it allows for a reduction in heat pump capacity as the PCM can complement the HVAC capacity, and secondly, the PCM can be charged during more favorable outdoor air temperatures [45,46]. PCMs can also be incorporated into various building components like walls [47], windows, and construction materials as thermal insulation to increase the energy efficiency of the buildings [48].…”

Decarbonizing the building sector is crucial for mitigating climate change, reducing carbon emissions, and achieving an energy production–consumption balance. This research aims to identify key design principles and strategies to enhance energy savings and analyze the integration potential of renewable energy sources (RES) such as solar, wind, geothermal, and biomass, providing in-depth technical exploration and evaluating current building developments. Moreover, the study also examines recent developments, explicitly focusing on integrating hybrid renewable energy systems, energy storage solutions, and AI-based technological innovations. Through comprehensive analysis and critical evaluation, this research provides valuable insights and practical recommendations for achieving building sustainability and advancing the transition towards a low-carbon built environment.
