For heritage buildings, energy-efficient retrofitting cannot be applied with the same range of possibilities as existing buildings. Applying such improvements to buildings can challenging due their historic and/or cultural significance and non-standard construction methods. This paper reviews technical challenges potential applying energy efficient retrofit elements in The measures reviewed are draught-proofing, windows, insulation, ventilation, heating, solar photovoltaics phase change materials. It is possible significantly reduce use retrofits. However, there no universal way apply which apparent literature, where case studies prevalent.

This paper analyzes electricity use in buildings and explores key research questions related to assessing, rating, labeling, benchmarking building energy use. The analysis reviews annual Energy Use Intensity (EUI) data from 3060 fully electric-powered across six categories: residential, educational, offices, hospitals, hotels restaurants, wholesale retail trade services. One-fifth of the analyzed is derived an dataset that offers a higher time-scale resolution, providing more detailed insights into usage patterns. employs various factors, including seasonal variation factor (SVF), daily (DVF), monthly (Mf), hourly (Hf), gain understanding actual at different time scales. findings indicate less sensitive variations than other carriers provide heating cooling. provides peak load percentages (PPL), which can indirectly assist assessing schedules for performance simulations. pattern varies between categories, with high-energy months alternating winter summer. For non-residential buildings, hours correspond directly daytime, while residential there shift towards evening, amplitude lower. Furthermore, variability carriers, even if non-electric, sheds light on implications electrification these loads.
