Abstract

This paper provides an overview of Subtask B: Tools and methods for solar design, of IEA SHC Task 41: Solar energy and architecture, 2009-2012. The focus of this Subtask was on identifying obstacles that architects are facing when implementing passive and active solar strategies in their design, especially during the early design phase (EDP) of building projects. The results of this Subtask also aim to provide strategies and resources for practitioners regarding the use of different digital tools and design methods for solar design.
