Zusammenfassung: | [...]that historic data is giving way to forward-looking climate-related trend lines around increased droughts and heatwaves, changes in precipitation patterns including heavy downpours, average temperature rise, severity of hurricanes and their locations, and of course sea level rise. The analysis illustrates there is a big jump in overall energy required, which is to be expected, and energy use is not the only thing increasing. Because buildings and systems are designed for our current climate, they may not meet future climate conditions. [...]hours outside thermal comfort ranges (unmet hours) are increasing. |
