Short Description
Technologies investigated for application in such housing included: passive solar design, active solar systems for domestic hot water and space heating, photovoltaic electric supply systems, improved daylighting, and natural cooling. In this Task, special attention was given to the marketing aspects of low-energy housing. The work of Subtask A, described in this article, systematically investigated the marketing of exemplary projects and used this information to write a compact and practical guide for marketing of low-energy housing.
