Abstract: Rapidly degrading air quality and continuously increasing thermal comfort demands have necessitated the use of sustainable energy in buildings. Global building energy share has reached the present figure of 30% and the energy demand in buildings is expected to surge in the coming decades due to rapid increase in population and urbanization. Energy consumption growth rate in buildings supersedes the industry and transportation sectors even. Almost 50% of building energy consumption is primarily required for HVAC systems. Worldwide there is huge demand to develop renewable energy based environment friendly HVAC systems that can lessen the consumption fossil fuels. This article presents a comprehensive insight of such technologies. © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved
