INTRODUCTION
The energy performance of buildings is a major issue in the current context of ecological transition. The residential and tertiary sectors account for a significant proportion of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, underscoring the need to optimize energy choices, construction techniques and management strategies. This article explores approaches and innovations for improving the energy efficiency of buildings, from the design of structures to the integration of new technologies and the transition to a sustainable energy mix.
