Abstract

In the olden days, the passive design was taken for granted in the traditional architecture, as the technology was not so advanced. In modern days, the advance of technology has provided greater comfort with the cost of energy consumption. By foreseeing the future, the fellow profession has discussed energy efficiency, particularly in the building industry, to reduce the rate of resource depletion. Besides that, energy efficiency is also directly affecting the thermal comfort of the occupants within the building. Buildings that were constructed within the tropical region can incorporate their advantage of small temperature difference into their building design and technology. Therefore, this paper is discussing the comparison between the differences in green innovation from two buildings, which are located in two countries with a similar climate.
