According to directive 2010/31/EU, a NZEB (nearly zero energy building) is defined as a high performance building whose very low or almost zero energy needs should be mostly provided by renewable sources. The study reported in this work has the objective to establish criteria and design solutions to improve buildings energy performances in order to reach NZEB targets for those buildings characterized by historical constraints. For this purpose, a comparative numerical analysis on the space cooling and heating of a historical building sited in Agrigento (Sicily, Italy) was performed by means of two energy tools: Termo and Trnsys. The first one is a stationary energy certification software based on the algorithms and mathematical methods listed in the UNI TS 11300 standard reference. The second one is a well calibrated dynamic tool based on hourly climate data and able to take into account the thermal inertia phenomena of structures. In order to obtain reliable results, measured climate data extracted from a weather station located near the reference building were used as input for the simulations. Starting from the simulation results, several retrofit scenarios were hypothesized, in order to achieve NZEB target, and then followed by a cost analysis carried out to reach optimal economic solutions and energy savings. The study can constitute a contribution to policy formulation and adoption of measures to facilitate design choices for the energy improving of historical buildings.
