Analysing the future energy performance of residential buildings in the most populated Italian climatic zone: A study of climate change impacts

There is growing concern that global warming will change the building’s performance pattern in the future. This paper investigates the effects of climate changes on the heating and cooling energy demand, the overall energy performance and the overheating risk of typical residential buildings (existi...

This paper investigates the effects of climate changes on the heating and cooling energy demand, the overall energy performance and the overheating risk of typical residential buildings (existing and refurbished) in the biggest city of the most populated Italian climatic zone, Milan.
