David Peabody and his team at Peabody Architects design passive homes. Passive houses use no solar or wind energy equipment. But they are extremely energy efficient. They cut heating and cooling costs by about 90%. But what sets his design apart from other " green homes" is that it looks ...
Heating and cooling systems are the biggest users of energy in American homes. And homes take up about one fourth of the nation's total energy use. But there are surprisingly simple ways to cut energy use and its cost. Davis Peabody and his team at Peabody Architects design passive homes....

The most profitable configurations of energy retrofit included installation of an air-source heat pump for space heating and of a full-roof photovoltaic system. The improvement that could be achieved by refurbishing the building envelope was not feasible. Moreover, the primary energy demand of the...
A district heating and cooling system (DHC) is expected to be a promising energy-saving measure for high-density business areas in Japan. However, it has not been verified what advantages of the DHC are important for energy conservation. The clarification of this issue is supposed to contribute...
