Developing a process-oriented approach towards Positive Energy Blocks: The wind-analysis contribution (2021)
Journal Article
Sibilla, M. (2021). Developing a process-oriented approach towards Positive Energy Blocks: The wind-analysis contribution. City, Territory and Architecture, 8(1), Article 11. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40410-021-00141-2

Positive Energy Block (PEB) is an emerging paradigm to transform cities into low carbon cities. It is expected that buildings will become the main components of the future energy infrastructure. This scenario demands a structural integration of the c... Read More about Developing a process-oriented approach towards Positive Energy Blocks: The wind-analysis contribution.

Envisioning Building-as-Energy-Service in the European context. From a literature review to a conceptual framework (2021)
Journal Article
Sibilla, M., & Manfren, M. (2022). Envisioning Building-as-Energy-Service in the European context. From a literature review to a conceptual framework. Architectural Engineering and Design Management, 18(4), 495-520. https://doi.org/10.1080/17452007.2021.1910924

Positive Energy Buildings (PEBs) represent an emerging paradigm for high performance in the building sector. This paradigm focuses on the possibility of exploiting the interaction between individual NZEBs and smart Smart Grids, using energy surplus e...
