Zero or plus energy office buildings must have very high building standards and require highly efficient energy supply systems due to space limitations for renewable installations. Conventional solar cooling systems use photovoltaic electricity or thermal energy to run either a compression-cooling machine or an absorption-cooling machine in order t...

In order to ensure a sustainable future, universities should start to use and spread the knowledge potential, technology and tools in research and education to serve as role models. The University of Applied Sciences Stuttgart (UAS) aims to become a CO2 neutral university and implement key principles of sustainable development through a trans-disci...

Humans in the developed countries spend most of their time indoors. Therefore, the importance of good indoor air quality is evident. Natural ventilation is common for the air supply in many private residential buildings as well as in offices around the world. It grants the hygienic minimum or even more air exchange, protects from moisture damages a...

Photovoltaic systems combined with electrical compression chillers offer a high potential for energy efficient cooling with a high economic feasibility. Due to much higher energy efficiency ratios of electric chillers compared to sorption cooling systems, the heat rejection system is much smaller and thus auxiliary energy and water consumption lowe...

About 1000 solar thermal cooling systems have been installed worldwide, so experience with system sizing and design is limited. To counter the lack of experience and to evaluate the potential of energy and cost efficient solar cooling systems, a systematic system design study has been carried out covering most climatic regions worldwide. For each t...

Solar thermal cooling systems have been installed as pilot projects in most regions of the world, but due to the low number of total installations there is not yet much experience available about system sizing and design. To counter the lack of experience and to evaluate the potential of energy efficient solar cooling systems, a systematic system d...
