It is presented in tabular form and divided by building feature (e.g., envelope and lighting).
The above-mentioned high-rise residential building body shape coefficient and the control range of the window-to-wall ratio of each building''s orientation meet the energy-saving design standards of residential buildings in each climate zone, and the optimal control range of the building orientation is −45°–45° (0° is south) (Zhou, 2018). The control range of the heat
Miami-based Ytech has officially broken ground on The Residences at 1428 Brickell, a 70-story, 195-unit residential tower designed by ACPV Architects and Arquitectonica.Set to become a prominent feature of the Miami skyline, it will be the world''s first high-rise partially powered by solar energy. The building integrates photovoltaic glazing into its
A high-rise residential building of 30 floors is constructed with a typical floor layout of the New Harmony One design from the public rental housing in Hong Kong. It is reported that about 30% of the population in Hong Kong live in the public rental housing which widely adopts this standard design plan in new developments .
Passive design strategies (PDSs) are fitting to minimize the building energy demand of residential high-rise buildings. Here, PDSs refer to a set of design approaches that focus on utilizing the natural environment to provide adequate indoor thermal comfort and lighting to a building ch design approaches include but are not limited to modifying the thermo

Energy consumption in existing buildings accounts for about 40% of global energy use, which has exceeded the demand of the manufacturing and transportation sectors ina is the world''s largest energy consumer in general, as well as the second largest for all buildings and the largest for residential buildings globally .The existing building stocks in
High-rise buildings consume more energy and have greater environmental impacts, emphasising the need to adopt best practices during the design stage concerning BIM employment.
Over the years, farming in and around urban buildings, particularly residential buildings, has gained popularity in high-density and high-rise environments (Lim and Kishnani, 2010;Khan et al
Previous research examined the impact of the various ESMs on buildings'' energy use reductions. For example, Cardinale et al. (2003) studied the performance of natural ventilation on energy saving on a two-storey semi-detached house in Italy through energy simulation. Ihara et al. (2015) investigated the effect of building fabric including solar reflectance and U-value of
Therefore, to maximize the solar energy generation, architects should consider square and round high-rise buildings and ''U'' type podiums for mounting BIPV systems in commercial complex buildings.

The potential of PFs in harvesting solar energy, which is currently the most viable renewable energy source (RES), and in utilizing the characteristics of the urban context, is promising. The study analyses the acceptance of the developed PF concept by its potential future users—residents of high-rise public housing blocks.
Energy of high-rise buildings is their high energy consumption in comparison with buildings with a lower number of storeys, which can be compensated by the integration of solar energy [1, 2]. This
The high amount of energy consumption in residential buildings can considerably be reduced by adopting passive design strategies (PDS), for its positive impact on the environment by reducing
The high-rise residential buildings in cities become popular in China, accounting for over 40 % of the newly-built buildings [, , ].The façade spaces of the high-rise residential buildings

Buildings account for nearly 50% of the total energy consumption. The use of airconditioning is one of the major influencers to the high energy consumption in buildings.
In this study, the optimum solar access is defined for a perimeter zone in a high-rise residential building, achieving 75 sDA (300lx|50) with corresponding annual energy savings of 28%-36% in the east–west and 8%-12% in the north–south directions. As the optimum solar access is difficult to calculate at the early design stage, building setback curves were developed.
Despite all the policies and pledges toward Net-Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs) in place, reaching net-zero energy performance in buildings remains a demanding and elusive goal .Among potential on-site renewable/carbon-free energy sources, solar energy is the most favoured and commonly used renewable energy source for NZEBs [13, 14].A limited area for
