Analysis of the thermal and technical parameters of the vegetated roof and its effect on the energy demand – Case study A

ENERGY!!! In this energy era, when the development of energies and the development of their prices is a daily topic that affects people’s lives, it is necessary to direct our thinking towards the reduction of global energy demands. In my industry, it’s reducing buildings’ energy needs, specifically for heating and cooling. It is known from many researches and studies how it is possible to reduce the energy demand of the building in the area of constructions by insulation, or suitable design of the envelope or in the area of Building services, by using renewable energy sources or by using a suitable source and type of heating and cooling. Therefore, I took a different direction in my research. PASSIVE COOLING. Passive so that we don’t fight against energy with energy, but that we use the amount of it that falls on the object in the largest possible amount and eliminate the rest with suitable design and suitable elements. I focus on VEGETATION and its potential in this direction. My work has several chapters, and in this article I am dealing with one of the first, namely the analysis of the thermal engineering parameters of the constructions in case study A.
