In the dissertation is analyzes the formation of the process of forming energy efficient homes in the world from the creation of low-rise housing with energy efficiency measures to the application of a city-planning approach to building design. This analysis and systematization of the stages of the evolution of energy efficient housing with accelerating development rates allows to predict qualitative and quantitative changes in the development of architecture of energy efficient residential buildings in the near future (30 years). The analysis of the current state of housing stock characteristics in historically formed cities and the classification of housing on different grounds, which allowed to identify the specific characteristics of each type of residential buildings and to determine the relationship of these characteristics of the performance of buildings. Two types of housing (medium and high-rise sections and corridors) have the highest potential for energy efficiency. Based on the analysis of energy efficient residential buildings in Europe, the basic requirements for energy efficient residential buildings have been established and the classification of modern energy efficient homes in Ukraine and abroad has been improved and supplemented. High potential for improving the energy efficiency of housing in Ukraine has been identified. In dissertation used an algorithm based on the use of multidisciplinary methodological approach with the use of methods of analysis of quantitative characteristics of energy efficient apartment buildings, methods of researching energy efficiency of housing in a historical environment and methods of modeling and design of energy efficiency. The combination of these methods makes it possible, on the basis of a calculated mathematical formalized model, to determine the architectural and planning parameters of a building, to create an architectural model through architectural design and to perform energy efficiency calculations using empirical methods. Pre-project analysis of the morphological structure of the central part of Poltava, analysis of the main compositional, geometric, stylistic and color features of residential buildings identified the main urban and architectural and planning features of Poltava. This describes the initial conditions under which the basic methodology for building future energy-efficient residential buildings will be applied. In dissertation is submitted calculation of one of the districts of Poltava based on the method presented by the author. Іnsulation map for the residential area identified reserve areas with favorable conditions for development, calculations of energy consumption of existing homes revealed houses with the worst performance. For one of such houses, on the basis of compositional, stylistic, coloristic, planning, functional, structural, morphological analysis, the author has selected a complex of architectural, planning and engineering methods of energy efficiency improvement, not worsening the energy efficiency of the surrounding buildings, and increasing their parameters. The main options for the placement of buildings in the structure of the quarters and the basic architectural and planning requirements for the design of energy-efficient residential buildings for further selection of the necessary measures and methods of energy efficiency improvement for the central part of Poltava are revealed. Identified and investigated 12 main options for possible location of residential buildings in typical quarters of the central part of Poltava. For each of the options revealed their own urban planning, architectural planning, design techniques and favorable orientation. The application of the methodology of energy-efficient housing allows the formation of energy-efficient housing at different baseline conditions for medium and large cities of Ukraine and the climate zone. The introduction of research into energy-efficient multi-apartment housing, in the educational process will expand the opportunities for future graduates.
