Net Zero Transition in Buildings is a timely, up-to-date reference resource on design, operation, and management of technology-enhanced equipment and advanced strategies that put guidance and attention toward sustainably responsible energy use within and around buildings at their core. The volume’s contents have been subdivided into sections, additionally proffering a deliberately structured flow throughout all chapters which is aimed at quickly getting readers at all levels up to speed or providing them with answers to key questions. Part I discusses physical solutions, namely different types of devices that harness renewable energy resources, store energy, or combine cooling, heating, and power systems; part II covers digital tools (e.g., AI, blockchain, big data, IoT, and digital twins) that can aid with carbon emissions’ accounting, predicting and optimizing energy consumption patterns, and more; and part III investigates the very latest technical concepts and approaches for energy self-producing built environment assets and a variety of integrated best practices for the construction sector as a whole. Furthermore, as the net zero transition in this context is a concept that has multidimensional pillars, part IV concludes this sought-after knowledge compilation by making it more comprehensive, well-rounded, and useful for audiences in academia and industry alike.
Dr. Luo joined UWE Bristol in 2018 as a Research Fellow and became a Senior Lecturer in Financial Technology in 2021. She holds a Bachelor Degree from the Huazhong University of Science and Technology and a PhD degree from the City University of Hong Kong. She has accrued experience in multidisciplinary teaching and research covering sustainable energy management, renewable energy, life cycle assessment, net-zero buildings, artificial intelligence, machine learning, blockchain and big data analytics. Dr. Luo is an editorial board member of Buildings (MDPI) and served as a guest editor in special issues in Discover Sustainability, Buildings, and Forecasting. Finally, she also serves as an active reviewer for several Elsevier’s journals, such as Energy and Buildings, Applied Energy, Energy and AI, Sustainable Cities and Society, etc. Dr. Sierra a Senior Fellow of the Higher Academy (SFHEA) with nearly two decades of experience in the construction industry as a consultant for embodied and operational carbon calculations as well as academia and research in the field of energy performance modeling and sustainability. He currently teaches Zero Carbon Architecture at the University of the West of England (UWE) and leads the MSc Façade Engineering program. He holds a PhD in development of structural solutions to achieve zero thermal bridges, as well as an MSc in modeling and assessment of embodied and operational energy (Cardiff University). Dr. Sierra is an active reviewer for Energy and Buildings (Elsevier) and Sustainability (MDPI), with his expertise being focused on sustainability for construction, including embodied and operational carbon, construction digitization, thermal bridging, well-being, responsible retrofitting strategies, building monitoring, Passivhaus, BIM, and 3D printing.
