Ia zero energia kontsumitzen duten eraikinen ezagutza zientifikoaren analisia

Abstract

Channelled efforts to lower energy consumption in the construction sector have led to the development of the NZEB (nearly zero energy buildings) concept in the European Union. The objectives of this work are to get an overview of the trend of scientific knowledge about NZEB buildings, and to examine the patterns or models that follow the relationships between the parameters that define the energy characteristics of Passivhaus dwellings. Through the Web of Science (WoS) database different aspects have been developed and visualized, the research field of science, the years of publication, country, journal, and the most important institutions, the articles that have been mentioned most often, analyzing the paths of technology activities. The general results express the great attention that the NZEB philosophy is getting in the field of science. Research work has been concentrated mainly in Europe, as have the institutions that publish most of the articles.
