Abstract

The paper aims to define the most appropriate energy and environmental retrofit on historic buildings, to enhance the historical value of a building, to reduce energy consumption and to improve human comfort, health and safety. It allowed the evaluation of the conservation risks, energy consumption, and maintenance procedures and also led to a proposal on the most appropriate energy actions. It also defines the difficulties of integrating green practices with historic preservation, and offers recommendations for ways in which sustainable standards could be more accommodating for historic buildings. The approach was used in the National Hotel building located in Port Said, Egypt
