"The built environment has the potential to have a major impact on biodiversity, not least with the increasingly demanding requirements to design more energy efficient and airtight buildings, leaving less space for species to inhabit."

"Inefficient energy use in buildings is both increasingly expensive and unsustainable. Indeed, the reduction of the energy consumption of existing buildings is as least as important as the design of new low-energy buildings. Controlling energy use is one thing, but it is important to assess or estimate it, and to understand the range of interventions for reducing its use and the methods for assessing the cost effectiveness of these measures. This comprehensive guide clearly and concisely covers the various issues from a theoretical standpoint and provides practical, worked examples where appropriate, along with examples of how the calculations are carried out. Topics covered include:where and how energy is used in buildings energy audits measuring and monitoring energy use techniques for reducing energy use in buildings legislative issues.It provides a template for instigating the energy management process within an organization, as well as guidance on management issues such as employee motivation, and gives practical details on how to carry it through. This book should appeal to building managers and facilities managers and also to students of energy management modules in FE and HE courses."

"This book presents cutting-edge work on the energy efficiency and environmental sustainability of buildings, examining EU policies, regulations and technologies for complex systems such as passive buildings, sustainable buildings and, as part of the Energy Performance of Building Directive (EPBD), nearly Zero Energy Buildings (nZEB) requirements. It explores a wide range of topics, including indoor environment requirements, building physics, in-situ experiments to determine the thermal properties of buildings, nZEB requirements, building service technology, and methods of evaluating energy efficiency and environmental impacts. It also provides an overview of the best available technologies for nZEB, including those for the rational use of energy, utilization of renewable energy sources, EPBD systems and calculation methods. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers and practitioners of urban planning, and architecture, civil and mechanical engineering."

"Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi variabel-variabel desain konsep near-zero energy housing nZEH serta penerapan terbaiknya di daerah tropis seperti Indonesia. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif melalui expert judgement dari pihak pemerintah, swasta, serta akademisi yang memiliki keahlian di dalam bidang desain bangunan dan energi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa variabel desain nZEH di daerah tropis meliputi desain pasif, fenestrasi, pengaturan pencahayaan, dan penggunaan panel photovoltaic PV. Pertimbangan lain meliputi penggunaan peralatan listrik ramah lingkungan, pemasangan sub meteran untuk air conditioner AC dan kotak kontak, penggunaan kipas angin atau AC dengan variable refrigerant flow VRF, serta pemanfaatan perangkat lunak simulasi bangunan dalam proses desain.

This research is aimed to identify design variables of near zero energy housing nZEH and its best practices in tropical climate, including Indonesia. This study was conducted by using expert judgement, which included government, private sector, and academician who are considered to have expertise in the field of building design and energy.

The results showed that the design variables of nZEH in tropical areas include passive design, fenestration, indoor lighting arrangements, and use of photovoltaic panels PV. Other considerations include the use of environmentally friendly electrical equipment, installation of sub meter for the air conditioner AC and socket, use of fan or AC with variable refrigerant flow VRF, and use of building simulation software in the design process."

"Graphic design is a crowded, highly competitive world. And it takes a lot more than raw talent and technical ability to make it as an independent designer. Successful graphic designer and entrepreneur, Larry Daniels exposes the weak spot of so many: the critical business side of running even a one-person design firm. Designers often prioritize aesthetics over a client's needs, and ignore basic business skills such as writing, record keeping, and relationship building. This practical insider's guide explains how to build a profitable, sustainable design business. Packed with sample agreements, letters, forms, and more, it reveals how to: create a website and portfolio that highlight design solutions; do pre-pitch research and deliver winning presentations; prepare inviting proposals that win lucrative contracts; establish a reliable system for tracking billable hours (and staying solvent); use cold-calling strategies even sales phobics can master; quantify design decisions in ways that business management can relate to and respect; break out of "freelancer" mode to highly compensated creative consultant. The field of design is littered with failures. To stand out and succeed, you need to be professional, efficient, and focused on the bottom-line results that clients value. "The Graphic Designer's Business Survival Guide" shows you how."
