Sustainable energy use in high performance buildings based on the inextricable linkage of energy efficiency and renewable (solar and other RES) implementation – optimized by the BPS and co-simulation via integrated building design, is to be covered. Session goal is to answer the question "Is buildings sector (urban and rural) strategic energy planning worldwide appropriate or should it be more "offensive" concerning the current RES technologies (thermal and electrical) and RES technical potential status, demonstration and commercialization, as well as successful decades of RES systems reliable operation, particularly in buildings sectors. Special attention will be drawn to the high IEQ-HVAC (high indoor environment-HVAC) buildings and their further "greening to approach NZEB" dependence on the further commercialization and implementation of RES technologies and RES integrated approach (from modeling through end designs and construction to the operational optimization via BEMS). Not less important are complex energy systems of the combined RES based central and/or municipal utilities energy generation and buildings distributed pure RES or hybrid (fossil and RES based) co-generation. Solar and other RES natural and technical potentials, locally available, are mainly in all world regions well determined and consequently many Governments Strategic Energy Plans are predicting important target - percentage growth of RES utilization in building sector and total.
