Energy and Climate Design II
Energie- und Klimadesign II
Last Updated: 2026-02-05 16:39:01
Abstract
This annual course focuses on physical principles, concepts and methods for the efficient and sustainable heating, cooling and ventilation of buildings. Interactions of energy and climate with architectural and urban design will be investigated.
Objective
At the end of this one-year course, students will be able to estimate the impact of energy and climate on a building. You will be able to independently apply the steps of an integrated design process to your own project and master selected tools from the A/S knowledge platform ( https://moodle-app2.let.ethz.ch/course/view.php?id=11917 ). Future own designs can be supplemented and enriched with potentials from energy and climate analyses.
Content
Students work independently in groups on a series of tasks. With the help of digital tools, the steps of an integrated design process are played through in a case study. The obligatory group tasks are supported with short input presentations, lecture notes and feedback sessions. The following topics are covered in the second semester of this annual course: 1. Local power generation 2. Storage 3. Environmental impact
