Building envelope energy assessments using the Passive House Planning Package (PHPP) represent a cornerstone in achieving optimal energy efficiency and sustainability in building design. PHPP, a powerful software tool developed by the German Passivhaus Institute, enables detailed analysis and optimisation of the building envelope's thermal performance.
By accurately modelling heat loss, thermal bridging, and energy gains, PHPP empowers designers and engineers to make informed decisions to create high-performance buildings that minimise energy consumption while maximising comfort and indoor air quality.
This introduction outlines the significance of building envelope energy assessments using PHPP and highlights their role in driving the transition towards more sustainable and energy efficient buildings.
