Preface
Nearly zero-energy (nZEB) buildings and cost-optimal energy performance have suddenly become a widely discussed topic across Europe. How to construct these buildings, how to design them, and above all what it means are relevant questions that many building professionals and decision makers from both the public and private sector need to ask and find answers to. The current situation is historic, as the EU has to be ready for the mass construction of nZEB buildings by 2019. Behind the scenes of this system-wide change in construction, direct
