The Delhi-based Ant Studio developed the 'Beehive', a passive, modular façade cooling system that uses terracotta cones and recycled water to reduce indoor temperatures without electricity or harmful gases.

This case study describes the implementation and temperature-reducing effects of cool roof reflective paint in low-income communities and industrial settings in Bangladesh and Indonesia.

This report by the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), prepared for Hunter Douglas, evaluates the energy savings potential of insulating honeycomb window shades in U.S. residences. Using EnergyPlus simulations across eight ASHRAE climate zones, the study finds that these shades can significantly reduce heating and cooling energy consumption, improve thermal comfort, and lower peak electricity demand, with existing homes seeing greater benefits than new homes.

This report presents findings from the Schools’ Air quality Monitoring for Health and Education (SAMHE) initiative for the 2023/2024 academic year. Based on data from hundreds of UK schools, the report examines the relationship between outdoor temperatures and indoor air quality, specifically focusing on carbon dioxide (CO2), relative humidity, and particulate matter (PM2.5).
