Abstract

A combination of technologies when applied to glazed fenestration can realise highly adaptive energyefficient facades providing good thermal comfort to building occupants. “Adaptive Fenestration for Emmission-free Cladding Technology” (AFFECT) employes vacuum glazing, electrochromic coating, luminescent solar energy concentration, photovoltaics and in-build antennae and battery to create a cladding system that mediates between indoor and outdoor environmental conditions to ensure indoor comfort conditions are maintained.
