If you’re interested in publications about energy saving building technologies, even if they are unrelated to solar shading, ES-SO makes a few of these available here. Because obviously, solar shading is not the only technology that will make buildings more energy-efficient.
The skin of a building is a system, where the various components work in synergy and one technique has an influence on another. It should not be forgotten that without mobile solar shading, to enhance the other energy-saving measures, there is no complete, effective solution and summer indoor comfort may be endangered. Some of the publications that you will find here may not take that into account. So, read them with a critical eye!
