Abstract

The aim of this work is to check the feasibility and limitations of near ZERO Energy design in highly dense conditions. The study is carried out by examination and comparison of various density design alternatives of an existing urban plot in the coastal climate zone of Israel. In this paper, we introduce design alternatives that increase on plot residential units' number by about 200%, compared to existing plot conditions (Kolodiy and Capeluto 2016). Increased dwelling units' number leads to higher energy use on the one side and mutual shading of new high rise residential buildings on the other, and then present to us new challenges. Preserving solar rights within the plot borders and outside for PV systems installation become more complex. The relations between urban density and passive solar urban design, energy consumption and energy production within plot borders are presented and discussed.
