A Norwegian ZEB-definition embodied emission
(ZEB Project report;17, Research report, 2014)This report deals with how to define what a Zero Emission Building (ZEB) is with explanation and analysis of different parameters related to embodied emissions of CO2 equivalents. The report can be used as a guidance tool ... -
Analysis of reduction of energy demands for Zero Emission Renovated Office Building by using thermal mass and ventilative cooling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Zero emission buildings (ZEB) are characterized by high levels of insulation and air tightness. Powerhouse Kjørbo is the first Zero Emission Renovated Office Building in Norway. In 2013-2014 the building from 1985 underwent ... -
Embodied greenhouse gas emissions from PV systems in Norwegian residential Zero Emission Pilot Buildings
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the combustion of fossil energy need to be reduced to combat global climate change. For zero energy and Zero Emission Buildings (ZEB), photovoltaic solar energy systems are often installed. ... -
From Zero Emission Buildings (ZEB) to Zero Emission Neighbourhoods (ZEN): A Mapping Review of Algorithm-Based LCA
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The building industry is responsible for approximately 40% of energy consumption and 36% of greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union (EU). The most efficient way of reducing a building’s environmental impact is ... -
Greenhouse gas balances in Zero Emission Buildings – Electricity conversion factors revisited
(ZEB Project report;37, Research report; Report, 2017)Reduction of energy use and GHG emissions in the building sector is a high priority. The EU 2050 roadmap that was established in 2010, states that to achieve a global warming of less than 2°C in this century, Europe should ... -
