September 27, 2013—Research and Markets, a source for international market research and market data, has announced the addition of Red Mountain Insights’ Energy Efficient Buildings Market Guide to its online offering.
Early efforts to bring change to the building sector generally focused on single issues such as energy efficiency and conservation of natural resources, notes Research and Markets. Green building now integrates a wide range of building design, construction, and operation and maintenance practices to provide healthier living and working environments and minimize environmental impacts.
This report examines the concepts of green building and energy efficiency in both commercial and residential buildings. It outlines the elements that can be incorporated into an energy-efficient building design, details financial considerations and industry trends, examines energy efficiency building in Europe, and provides case studies of successful design and installations.
Companies mentioned within the report include Actelios, Cemex, DuPont, EDF, Enermodal Engineering, Honeywell, Lafarge, Philips and TEPCO.
