Abstract
Numerous environmental issues have been addressed as a consequence of rapidly increasing global energy consumption. Building energy consumption has risen considerably in the last few decades. In recent years, the zero energy building (ZEB) concept has attained worldwide attention and is now commonly identified as the future criteria for building design. However, there is a lack of uniform definition in this field. This study combines bibliometric and visual analysis of Scopus database publications from 1977 to 2022 to investigate ZEB-related studies. Five topical clusters formed as a result of evaluating the co-occurrence network of the keywords. Finally, the most popular research trends were determined by investigating the overlay network. The scientific knowledge concerning zero energy buildings has been mapped by employing the results of this paper. In addition, they have been utilized to highlight future opportunities and gaps and illustrate the connections between various subject areas.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of the Journal of Green Building is to present the very best peer-reviewed research in green building design, construction, engineering, technological innovation, facilities management, building information modeling, and community and urban planning. The Research section of the Journal of Green Building publishes peer-reviewed articles in the fields of engineering, architecture, construction, construction management, building science, facilities management, landscape architecture, interior design, urban and community planning, and all disciplines related to the built environment. In addition, the Journal of Green Building offers the following sections: Industry Corner that offers applied articles of successfully completed sustainable buildings and landscapes; New Directions in Teaching and Research that offers guidance from teachers and researchers on incorporating innovative sustainable learning into the curriculum or the likely directions of future research; and Campus Sustainability that offers articles from programs dedicated to greening the university campus.
