Technology Roadmap: Energy-efficient Buildings : Heating and Cooling Equipment

2011

Buildings account for almost a third of final energy consumption globally and are an equally important source of CO2 emissions. Currently, both space heating and cooling as well as hot water are estimated to account for roughly half of global energy consumption in buildings. Energy-efficient and...
