Effective Passive Solar Systems in Residential Buildings in Iran

Technology development and expansion of the industries has made the communities to be needed to the nonrenewable energies and power more than ever. Moreover, the use of renewable energies will strongly be more due to the limitations of fossil fuels, air pollution, and increasing greenhouse gases and global temperatures. The purpose is to provide the solutions to reduce the energy consumption in residential buildings because this is one of the most widely used sectors of energy and also by creating the intelligent buildings we can reduce the energy consumption up to 50%. Iran is located on the world's solar belt and its solar radiation amount is higher than the global average. In addition, the sun shines with high power in Iran and on average, there are 280 sunny days yearly. This paper describes the effective passive solar systems in homes in Iran.
