如今，关于气候变化、化石燃料枯竭和能源安全的辩论突出表明，需要一个更可持续的建筑环境，以减少建筑部门的能源消耗和排放趋势。实现这些目标是一项挑战，需要进行创新研究，以改善可再生能源、新技术以及整体工具和方法的使用。这种研究应结合建筑物能源供应和需求的动态和主要驱动因素，以支持旨在降低建筑环境负担的新政策、计划和行动。本文汇集了关于建筑物能源和环境性能的十个研究主题，这些主题可以支持向更可持续的建筑环境转变。简要总结了所涵盖的研究主题的背景信息和最新文献，确定了差距，并为未来的研究提供了指导方针。选定的主题涵盖建筑物生命周期的不同沿着阶段（从设计和运营，到改造和寿命结束），不同规模的方法（从建筑元素/组件，到建筑物，地区和城市规模），以及评估建筑物能源和环境性能的不同方法（生命周期评估，生成设计方法和改造工具）。讨论的其他主题包括：近零能耗建筑，智能电网场景中的家庭能源控制，将最终用户行为纳入能源需求动态的必要性，通过使用相变材料改善热存储的优势，减少加热和冷却能源需求的重要性（保持室内热舒适性），以及加热和冷却流体的优化，以及它们的系统控制。
Nowadays, debates addressing climate change, fossil fuels depletion and energy security highlight the need for a more sustainable built environment in order to reduce energy consumption and emission trends in the buildings sector. Meeting these targets is a challenge that calls for innovative research to improve the use of renewable energy sources, new technologies, and holistic tools and methodologies. Such research should integrate the dynamics and main drivers of energy supply and demand in buildings to support new policies, plans and actions towards lowering the built environment burdens. This paper brings together ten research topics concerning the energy and environmental performance of buildings, which can support a shift towards a more sustainable built environment. Background information and state of the art literature on the covered research topics is briefly summarized, gaps are identified and guidelines for future research are provided. The selected topics cover different stages along the lifetime of buildings (from design and operation, to retrofitting and end-of-life), different scale approaches (from building elements/components, to the building, district and urban scales), and different methods to assess the energy and environmental performance of buildings (life-cycle assessment, generative design methods and retrofitting tools). Other topics are discussed such as: nearly zero-energy buildings, the control of domestic energy resources in smart grid scenarios, the need to include end-users' behaviors in the dynamics of energy demand, the advantages of improving thermal storage by using phase change materials, the importance of reducing heating and cooling energy demand (maintaining indoor thermal comfort), and the optimization of heating and cooling fluids, and their system control.
