Abstract

Many residential buildings in hot climates use a huge amount of energy to run the air conditioning in order to maintain comfortable conditions for the occupants. This study of a domestic building in Libya used detailed monitoring and analysis of the measured data with a view to devising a strategy for reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions.
