Abstract

Buildings is definitively recognised as one of the most energy demanding
sector due to the consumption of energy which, indeed, represents
around 40% of the energy demands at the global level.
However, both the operational and the embodied energy should be
considered when investigating the life cycle of a building. The operational
energy is the one spent to maintain the inside environment
through a series of processes, such as heating and cooling, lighting and
operating building appliances. Whilst, the embodied energy is sequestered
in buildings and building materials during all processes of production,
on-site construction, and final demolition and disposal: direct
and indirect energy are the two primary components of the embodied
energy. The direct component is used for construction, maintenance,
renovation and demolition of buildings, whilst the indirect one is
consumed for production of the materials utilised for building construction
