Improvement of energy performances of dwelling housing in Belgrade

Abstract

The main concern of this research is to estimate different possibilities of energy performances improvement of existing dwelling housing in settlement Konjarnik, Belgrade, Serbia. Different solutions for reduction of energy consumption for heating of existing dwelling housing are proposed and taken into consideration. Two hypothetical models of improvement of building envelope are created and the annual energy savings for space heating according to the models is recognized. Comparative analyses of energy performances of existing building and predicted models of improvement are carried out regarding energy savings and reduction of CO 2 emissions. The results show that significant energy savings and reduction of CO 2 emissions can be obtained with a very simple refurbishment measures.
