What is Buildings for Sustainable Energy Future about?
The global energy scenario is facing challenges on multiple fronts. Buildings, being responsible for the consumption of 36% of the total energy have to play an important role in the drive for a sustainable energy future. Accounting for over 33% of greenhouse gas emissions and around 40% of materials consumption, buildings are critical in the fight against climate change as well. The chapter explores the interaction between buildings and sustainable development. It discusses the prospects of making buildings more sustainable through energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions. As a case study, it also discusses the potential for improvements in commercial buildings in the USA as a case study.
