One key component in achieving a more sustainable building sector is to introduce different
forms of energy-efficient or renewable buildings. In this chapter a review of the literature
published within the Web of Science databases on low-energy houses, passive houses, zero energy houses and passive solar houses is presented. The aim is to analyze trends in the
scientific literature concerning sustainable buildings and to discuss which issues have been
in focus and which have been neglected in earlier studies. This will create a basis for
discussing knowledge gaps and future research needs. Our scope is to focus on the
development of research on dwellings.
