Optimal design of net zero energy residential buildings in tropical climate

The building sector is the largest consumer of energy worldwide and puts substantial pressure on primary energy sources. The residential buildings in Malaysia consume 21.25 % of total electricity generation due to the hot and humid climate, which enforces massive air conditioning systems. Net Zero E...
