Overheating Indicator and Calculation Method for Walloon Buildings

Overheating in buildings is expected to be more intense and prolonged due to the current rate of climate change and global warming. There is a significant need for resilient building design and therefore it is mandatory to develop calculation methods and indicators to avoid overheating and invest in carbon neutral cooling technologies and sustainable solutions. There is still a challenge of keeping the occupants safe, comfortable, and productive in an affordable way despite the rising temperatures and changes in the rainfall and solar irradiance. ; Project SurChauffe
