The building stock in the world is huge but most important, buildings stay in the built environment for a long time. Therefore retrofitting our buildings is a challenge we have today. But retrofitting does not only mean renovating old buildings or bringing to them a more contemporary appeal; it also means complying with new standards and legislation, as well as with an increased awareness of environment-related issues. One of the most demanding ones is energy efficiency.

Old buildings usually have high heat losses. Reducing heat losses does not just mean incorporating an insulation layer since an inadequate selection of the material or an inadequate design or installation can create new problems such as trapping moisture in the building walls, which can in turn negatively affect occupants’ health or comfort. Therefore, energy-efficient building retrofitting has become a hot topic in research that needs to reach the market. To do so, the materials and technologies need to become cost-effective. Renovated buildings need to save energy and reduce emissions compared to their initial state.

Therefore heat losses in the envelope need to be reduced, paying attention to thermal bridges and airtightness, as well as the incorporation of energy-efficient HVAC equipment. Finally, the use of renewable energy contributes to energy efficiency goals.

This book contributes to all these aims, describing materials, technologies, and optimization techniques, and showing case studies. It fulfills the objective of disseminating this knowledge and will help architects and engineers to find appropriate information.

The book contains a good description of insulating materials, the use of phase change materials and reflective materials for building retrofitting, solar collectors, and building-integrated photovoltaics. Optimization techniques include measuring and verification models, smart energy and heating systems, as well as multi-objective optimization, including genetic algorithms and artificial neural networks for predicting the energy behavior of a building category. Finally, case studies from Sweden, Finland, Russia, Estonia, Serbia, the Alps, Spain, and Italy are presented.

I am sure that this book will help all readers to design and implement cost-effective retrofitting technologies in their new projects.
