Optimizing energy consumption using new energies within residential buildings toward objectives of sustainable developme
Journal Title: Scientific Journal of Review - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Aim of this study is to provide solutions as to optimizing energyconsumption using new energies within residential buildings toward purposes ofsustainable development. Using fossil fuels causes increasing pollution anddestruction of the environment. Solution to maintaining the environment anddesigning buildings according to climatic circumstances and sustainablearchitecture development principles is using new and clean energies and this isa step toward reducing energy waste within buildings. This solution is broadlyused in industrial countries and recently in Iran. Such energies are in fullinteraction with the environment and result in reduction of damage to theenvironment. Therefore, this studyinvestigate and introduces new energies and solutions as to using new energiesincluding new energy systems encompassing non carbon sources of energy such assolar, wind, geothermal and neutral carbon energy like biomass in order tolower usage of energy within residential buildings as a model for architecturalplans toward reduction in energyconsumption for economic development and interaction with the environment which are among fundamental objectives ofsustainable development.
