Abstract

Abstract: To achieve energy efficiency targets set for building sector in EU, innovative thermal envelope materials should be implemented. Currently available materials have static thermodynamic properties. In the era of intelligent materials and gadgets responsive flexibilities can be applied to building materials as well. Paper illustrates proposal for climate adaptive building shell element – cell that operates as media in solar energy accumulation and release to internal space.
