Role Of Rectangular Office Building Floors For Making Energy Positive Building

Abstract

Energy-positive buildings play a crucial role in mitigating the environmental impact of the built environment while addressing the growing energy demands. This research paper examines the role of rectangular office building floors in achieving energy-positive status, focusing on their potential to enhance energy efficiency and renewable energy generation. The study incorporates a comprehensive literature review to identify key factors influencing energy consumption in office buildings and explores the significance of building design and layout. A simulation, and case studies, is employed to evaluate energy performance and compare rectangular floors (G+2), (G+6) and (G+15). The analysis and findings highlight the advantages of rectangular office building floors in terms of energy efficiency and their potential for integrating renewable energy systems. The discussion provides insights into the implications of the research findings for energy-positive building design, outlines challenges and limitations, and offers recommendations for architects, designers, and policymakers. By shedding light on the role of rectangular office building floors, this research contributes to the advancement of sustainable building practices and encourages the adoption of energy-positive strategies.
