Abstract

Energy efficiency is one of the most important topics worldwide, nevertheless, each region has its own specifics, which have to be considered. This is especially important for online tools that deliver comprehensive information on energy efficiency and renewable energy for average consumer as well as for municipalities and governments. These tools are essential for energy retrofit of existing building for energy saving as well as designing of new energy-efficient buildings and also for designing and sizing renewable energy technologies such as solar home system. A dynamic interactive building energy design software tool has been developed especially tailored taking care about main features required for Sub-Saharan African context, under a joint agreement (research project) between Politecnico di Milano and UN-Habitat. In this chapter, the results of testing of the software tool for building geometry have been presented.
