This role of the built environment is not yet fully developed and exploited and the book content contributes to increasing the general awareness of achievable benefits. In particular, different topics are discussed, such as optimal control, innovative efficient technologies, methodological approaches, and country analysis about energy efficiency and energy flexibility potential of the built environment. The Special Issue offers valuable insights into the most recent research developments worldwide UR - https://mdpi.com/books/pdfview/book/3333 UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68323 ER -
