EEA cooperates actively with ministries and departments, industry bodies, regional administrations and local authorities and the operators as they have expertise in energy efficiency, technology transfer, knowledge and experience, providing funds for financing of programs and projects.
Сайтът на австралийското бюро за прилагане на мерки в сградния сектор (ABCB) информира за енергийно-ефективни програми за многофункционални жилищни и търговски сгради. Ръководство за прилагането на енергийна ефективност в сгради е също налична на интернет страницата.
This web site contains information on building energy codes and building design, construction, and renovation.
The mission of the Building Technologies Program (BTP) is to develop technologies, techniques, and tools for making buildings more energy efficient, productive, and affordable. BTP focuses on improving commercial and residential building components; energy modeling tools, building energy codes, and appliance standards. This Web site provides information and resources for industry professionals to help reduce the energy use of new and existing buildings and strengthen the nation's energy future.
The EU Directive on energy performance of buildings (2002/91/EC) is the main legislative instrument at EU level to achieve energy performance in buildings. This web site contains information on EU energy efficiency policies regarding buildings.
At this web site, you will faces Berkeley Lab's energy efficiency research including: (1) advanced energy technologies, (2) building efficiency technologies, (3) research on both U.S. and international energy issues—policy, efficient purchasing, electricity markets, energy use of buildings, industry, and transportation, and (4) ventilation, indoor air quality, assessing pollutant exposures and risk.
NREL is a buildings research combining renewable energy with innovative technologies to significantly reduce energy consumption in buildings. NREL’s research activities includes studies on (1) whole building energy integration, (2) tools to assist in the analysis of energy needs and solutions, and (3) innovative building technologies.
The free-of-charge RETScreen Clean Energy Project Analysis Software under the web site can be used to evaluate the energy production and savings, costs, financial viability and risk for solar thermal energy projects. It includes also the summarized solar intensity data.
