2. Passive solar building design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_solar_building_design

   In a sun-tempered building, the south-facing window area should be limited to about 5 to 7% of the total floor area, less in a sunny climate, to prevent overheating. Additional south-facing glazing can be included only if more thermal mass is added. Energy savings are modest with this system, and sun tempering is very low cost. [20]

3. Quadruple glazing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadruple_glazing

   With six-pane glazing, a U g value as low as 0.24 W/(m 2 K) [R-value 24] was reported. [1] This brings several advantages, such as: Energy efficient buildings without modulated sun shading The desired overall window thermal transmittance value of lower than about 0.4 W/(m 2 K) is possible without having to depend on modulated external shading.

   Energy-efficient houses in cold climates often feature triple-glazed windows with a U-value between 0.19 and 0.26. In moderate and hot climates, quality double-glazed windows with a U-value of about 0.30 are generally a more cost-competitive and effective choice. [6]

   Low-energy buildings, which include zero-energy buildings, passive houses and green buildings, may use any of a large number of techniques to lower energy use. Part of a series on Sustainable energy

6. Low-energy house - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-energy_house

   The term "low-energy house" is used in some countries for a specific type of building. [18] A low-energy house is a guideline rarely specified in actual values (heat load or space-heating minimum). A passive house is a standard, with specific recommendations to save heating energy.
