... roof treatments, achieving a decrease of 8.21%. These results highlight the importance of adopting scale-specific passive design strategies to effectively reduce operational energy demand in religious buildings. Originality/value The study fills a gap in research on energy performance in religious...

.... Therefore, the selection of this study case is based on these criteria as well as execution of physical work for energy retrofit. Five initiatives have been introduced to realise the country’s EE programme. Among them are promoting the use of five-star rating equipment, minimum energy performance...

... This paper takes a case study approach focussed on the assessment of the heating energy performance of the building. This approach facilitated a detailed calculation of the selected materials’ energy performance used in a representative building structure in Kosovo comparing with passive buildings standard...
