combines a significant decrease of cooling demand and improvement of
thermal comfort and indoor air quality.

The aim of the present paper is to study the technical and legal aspects
of night ventilation in urban climatic conditions. The technical part
examines the efficiency of night ventilation techniques for urban
residential buildings. Moreover, the influence of urban heat island on
the night ventilation effectiveness is studied. Urban heat provokes the
degradation of urban air quality and causes changes in the urban area
microclimate which reduce the night ventilation effectiveness as a
passive cooling technique. Moreover, this paper studies the legal
framework of energy efficiency in buildings and pinpoints the
institutional deficiencies of the existing regulation regarding energy
efficiency and passive cooling techniques.
