Abstract
⺠Integrated thermal-daylighting simulations on a low energy building are performed. ⺠Optimal WWR of the façade that minimizes the total energy demand is searched. ⺠Optimal WWR are found in the range 35-45%, regardless the orientation, in a temperate oceanic climate. ⺠If state-of-the-art technologies are used, WWR does not play a crucial role (maximum influence: 11%). ⺠The optimal configurations are tested against different building geometries and HVAC efficiencies.
