| الوصف: | In today’s world, energy efficiency is the most sought characteristic. Enhancing energy efficiency and hence moving towards sustainability is considered the primary requirement. Buildings are the places where we spend most of our time and thus they consume more than one-third of the energy consumption. This forces the stakeholders to think about the new ways to strike a dynamic balance between comfortable human dwelling, efficient resource management, and protecting our environment (Verma et al., 2022). Reducing energy consumption in buildings is essential in order to alleviate deteriorating impacts on the environment. Improving the energy efficiency of buildings is becoming a priority by converting buildings from energy consumers to energy-neutral or even energy-positive entities, which produce more energy from renewable sources than they consume. To improve the building performance, building efficiency requires the integration of superior architecture and engineering designs, energy-efficient building materials, quality construction practices, and intelligent operation of the structures (Li et al., 2021). Increasing the energy efficiency of buildings is not a new issue. This is a challenge not only in Lithuania, but also in many other European countries, as evidenced by the actions and initiatives of the European Union. Since the climate of Lithuania is transitional between midlatitude maritime and continental, the issue of thermal insulation of buildings is important from an economic and ecological point of view. The construction industry is increasingly integrating natural and ecological organic thermal insulation materials such as: wood wool, insulation cork board, cellulose fibres, hemp, sheep’s wool, flax, straw bales and etc. But in this chapter we will discuss about traditional, state-of-the-art and possible materials and solutions on the Lithuanian market such as: Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), Insulating Concrete Forms (ICFs) and Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs). |
