Abstract

This text is aimed at comparing the dynamic interaction between energy and the construction process, according to the updated and now urgent need of being suitable to the various standards, laws, and regulations which require the use of peculiar source of energy: that entitled Green. After the definition of the new coined term “greenergy”, the paper deals with the role of energy in construction, at various scales and frontiers, according to the different climatic conditions of the places, and then the strict bond between energy and comfort both in terms of users and buildings. Then the tasks offered by various materials in terms of greenery are outlined, as containers of saving potential, as well as comfort providers. The chance of considering energy as an integral part of the whole resource provision from the Planet is clarified and demonstrated within the special anthropic place of the city. Finally the climate change question and the importance of greenergy is discussed, defining the need of applying drastic collective measures at wide scale but also at the small one - with the contribution of consumers and good producers (human capital) - as the only means of achieving the taking off of the complex market of greenergy .
