2. Low-energy house - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-energy_house

   Reduction of energy consumption is more environmentally and financially advantageous than increasing onsite production to reach a low-energy goal. The less a home consumes, the smaller renewable-energy system it requires to reach net zero. Energy efficiency should always be the primary design strategy of a low-energy house. [1]

   Energy efficiency is not an attachment or supplement to architectural design, but a design process that integrates with architectural design. [8] Although it is generally applied to new buildings, it has also been used for renovations. In 2008, estimates of the number of passive house buildings around the world ranged from 15,000 to 20,000 ...
