In our days, energy issues belong to the most important problems facing the Earth and the solution may be expected partly from decreasing the amount of the energy used and partly from the increased utilisation of renewable energy resources. A substantial part of energy consumption is related to buildings and includes, inter alia, the use for cooling/heating, lighting and cooking purposes. In the view of the above, special attention has been paid to minimising the energy consumption of buildings since the late 1980s. Within the framework of that, the passive house was created, a building in which the thermal comfort can be achieved solely by postheating or postcooling of the fresh air mass without a need for recirculated air.The aim of the paper is to study the changes in the construction of passive houses over time. In addition, the differences between the geographical locations and the observable peculiarities with regard to the individual building types are also presented.

This paper will present one example of two systems installed in houses in the CEH project along with preliminary results.…”

The UK government is committed to cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050 in a bid to tackle climate change. Dwellings in the UK account for approximately 27% of the UK total of carbon dioxide emissions through the burning of fossil fuel for heating, lights and appliances. This includes combustion on the premises, mainly natural gas for heating and cooking, and combustion in power stations to produce electricity for homes. In order to address the climate change contribution from the domestic sector, the UK government has stated that every new home needs to be zero-carbon by 2016. This paper outlines the proposed line of research which will be undertaken on a number of experimental eco-houses constructed at the University of Nottingham. The on-going work will trial and test different construction solutions and sustainable energy technologies. The paper investigates the role that post-occupancy evaluation will play in ensuring that design aspirations are actually met once the dwellings are inhabited. The work also describes the role that phase change materials and earth air heat exchangers may play as thermal mass substitutes in constructive solutions for housing in a warming climate. These solutions and technologies for ensuring occupant comfort and preventing summer overheating in super-insulated dwellings are likely to become increasingly important as UK temperatures rise owing to man-made climate change.
