Abstract


This conference describes the main problems of energy use in face of the depleting of fosil resources, energy supply and emission of atmospheric toxic gases, green house effect gases and ozone depleting gases. The relevance of energy consumption in the environment impact is commented, as well as the key points for the posible evolution of the problem and in the appropriate technology research to cope with them In order to improve the energy and ecological efficiency of buidings. The main characteristics of present day technologies for the introduction of renewable energies in buidings are comented, dealing with their barriers for the widespread use. The most recent research on air conditioning using thermal solar energy with absorption machines is described, with application to Madrid.
