“…Novas fontes de geração de energia elétrica que propicie aumento da capacidade energética para abastecimento das cidades estão sendo amplamente estudadas, tais como: sistemas solares e turbinas eólicas (BELUSSI et al, 2019;KRISTIANSEN;MA;WANG, 2019;SEYAM, 2019;WANG et al, 2017). Além disso a minimização de consumo de energia elétrica em edificações através do uso, por exemplo, de paredes verdes, materiais para isolamento térmico, estão sendo estudadas no intuito de melhorar a capacidade térmica, possibilitando a diminuição do consumo de energia elétrica para resfriar ou aquecer ambientes (BELUSSI et al, 2019;MARQUES et al, 2019;SEYAM, 2019).…”

“…A utilização de sistemas de produção de energia a partir de placas fotovoltaicas (KHALID et al, 2016;OURIA, 2019;SADATI;EDWARDS, 2019) e sistemas de turbinas eólicas (KHALID et al, 2016;KRISTIANSEN;MA;WANG, 2019;SHABGARD;SONG;ZHU, 2018;WANG et al, 2017) podem diversificar a matriz energética e reduzir a dependência de energia de fonte hídrica e ou térmica, mitigando os custos com energia elétrica (BELUSSI et al, 2019;SEYAM, 2019). No entanto a utilização de energia solar e eólica ainda é mínima, devido aos altos custos de instalação e a demora quanto ao retorno de investimento (BOBROVA, 2015;MADESSA, 2015;MONTAGNINO, 2017;VIEIRA;MOURA;DE ALMEIDA, 2017).…”

“…A falta de iniciativas para geração de energia de fontes alternativas pelos edifícios também proporcionou aumento na demanda por energia elétrica do município. Uma forma de atender essa demanda, principalmente no período de verão pode ser a diversificação de sistemas de geração de energia, podendo ser principalmente energia solar e eólica (BELUSSI et al, 2019;KRISTIANSEN;MA;WANG, 2019;OURIA, 2019;SEYAM, 2019;WANG et al, 2017). Porém a implantação desses sistemas implica em custos elevados com retorno a longo prazo (Portugal, 2012 (RIBEIRO et al, 2018).…”

A construção de cidades causa impactos negativos ao meio ambiente, porém elas são fundamentais para a sociedade contemporânea, sendo crescente o interesse por ambientes urbanos. Este artigo trata-se de uma análise documental sobre os aspectos de consumo de água e energia elétrica do município de Governador Celso Ramos (SC), Brasil, no período de 2008 à 2017. Os resultados demonstram aumento de consumo de energia elétrica nos anos período em 69,16% para o setor residencial, 99,55% para o setor comercial e 1,68 vezes a mais para o setor industrial e o consumo de água aumentou 17,02% no mesmo período, com influência da sazonalidade. Mitigações como instalação de fontes alternativas de energia, como solar e eólica, e reaproveitamento de água da chuva e de águas cinzas podem ajudar a atender a demanda da população. Ressaltando que ações educativas devem ser adotadas pois a demanda per capita de água e energia elétrica aumentou no período de estudo. Como conclusão evidencia-se a necessidade de ações conjuntas entre prefeitura municipal, iniciativa privada, órgãos governamentais e munícipes a fim de minimizar os impactos que o crescente número de construções no município está proporcionando ao meio ambiente local.

“…Climbers can be rooted in the soil on ground or in pots that can be placed at different heights of the façade. Living walls are characterized by the growing media embedded in panels, modules, bags (modular living walls) or by continuous screen or geotextile felt (continuous living walls) which are fixed to a wall or a free-standing frame [6], [10]. Green façades, when compared to living walls have a wider application potential due to having a simpler composition, easier installation and maintenance, lower operational and installation costs [11].…”

The increasing environmental issues have afforded opportunities for a widespread application of green systems in urban areas. Greening the building with green roofs and vertical green systems can be a design and retrofitting strategy to improve building energy performance in summer and in winter. Research efforts have been mainly concentrated on their energy saving function during warm periods. Green façades have a great application potential thanks to the space available in urban environment. The effect of green façades on building energy performance has been studied mainly for warm periods. In order to evaluate the effect during cold periods, an experiment was conducted in Bari, Italy, for two years. Pandorea jasminoides variegated and Rhyncospermum jasminoides were tested as evergreen climbing plants on walls; a third wall was used as control. The night-time temperature of the covered wall was higher than the uncovered wall temperature by up to 3.5°C, thanks to the presence of plants. The thermal barrier function performed by the vegetation layer was analysed. The influence of outdoor air temperature, relative humidity and wind velocity on the façades thermal effect during night-time was investigated. The experimental test demonstrated that both Pandorea jasminoides variegated and Rhyncospermum jasminoides are suitable for green façades in the Mediterranean climatic area during winter. The use of the green façades allowed increasing the thermal performance of the walls during night-time. They also reduced the surface temperature changes throughout the day.

“…Vertical greening systems are increasingly being used due to a continuous decrease in green areas and limited land (Seyam 2019). According to Besir (2018), this involved placing a veil mainly as a growing medium on the walls of buildings (Besir and Cuce 2018).…”

The city's thermal environment plays an important role in achieving comfort and quality of life, especially during the current global pandemic. Meanwhile, reduction in the green areas has been observed to be continuously causing climate change in cities and one of the proposed solutions to this is by developing a greening system for buildings. This paper, therefore, assessed the ability of vertical garden to decrease air and surface temperatures as well as CO2 levels. The research involved field measurements of these parameters both inside and outside the building along with the modification of the vertical garden distance at 0.5 m and 1 m as well as the plant type including red spinach or amaranthus hybridus, mustard or brassica juncea, celery or apium graveolens linn, and cat's whiskers or orthosiphon spicatus. The results showed an average decrease of 0.75°C in air temperature, 16.4ºC in surface temperature, and 58.8 ppm in CO2 levels. Moreover, a maximum reduction of 6ºC was achieved in air temperature with red spinach plants at 0.5 m, 26.3ºC in surface temperature by the Rred spinach plant, and 124 ppm in CO2 levels by celery plants. In conclusion, a closer distance and darker color of the leaves as well as the red spinach species were found to be the main consideration in the application of vertical gardens in urban homes due to their ability to reduce the temperature on the limited land. © 2020 Agung Murti Nugroho
