Abstract

An instrumental approach to design energy efficient buildings within the context of neighbourhood is presented. In the EU project Design4Energy (D4E) a scenario driven approach was used to define the activities that should take place at an early design stage, as well as the actors involved and the tools required to support such activities. Six KPIs and a tool were defined to be used in early design phase to support communication between design team and client. In addition, energy matching was analysed with specific indicators. This paper discusses the methodological approaches, demonstrates how communication between design team and the client can be facilitated using KPIs in different phases and presents specifically how relevant indicators help to achieve possibly high level of sustainability and energy efficiency in the neighbourhood.
