dc.description.abstractThe electrical demand for public buildings in Jericho is steadily increasing on an annual basis, particularly for cooling purposes and in view of the global warming challenge. Net zero energy aims to achieve balance of annual energy consumption with annual generation under more efficient conditions. Implementing the vision of net zero energy necessitates a comprehensive study for each case as an individual. The primary goal of this research is to highlight various opportunities and measures of energy conservation in Jericho's public buildings, with the goal of reducing annual costs by leveraging sustainable energy practices. The methodology in this work relies extensively on simulation software to evaluate multiple saving measures and scenarios. The findings reveal that implementing net zero energy can achieve about (33 %) as annual energy savings, and (1250 Tons) annual reduction of CO2 after installation of a PV system. Moreover, the analysis shows that the simple payback period for achieving net zero energy status is less than four years, also the levelized cost of energy is about (0.06 $/kWh). These promising results motivate to adopt an effective strategy through the next twenty years in Jericho to support the transition toward the net zero energy building.
