Passive House Building envelope in all climatic regions – solutions for the practice The Passive House should be marketed as one single product. Convincing decision makers at the very beginning of any planning process of the cost-efficiency of the Passive House standard results in success. The Passive House should also be produced as one single product, as it is more than the sum of its components. |

Uptake of native Certified Passive House Components by the Chinese passive construction sector - a gap analysis Recent years have seen widespread adoption of Passive House in China, both for buildings and construction products. This paper examines which locally manufactured construction systems, windows and HVAC units are being used in Chinese developments, with a view to spotting trends and opportunities. |
