Throughout the past few decades, research has demonstrated that climatic factors are
some of the most important issues to be considered in respect of energy consumption
in buildings. Climatic factors, therefore, directly influence the economic sector. In
order to study the impact of climatic factors in Karakol residential buildings in terms
of energy consumption, an evaluation of the studies (literature survey) effected in
relevant climates, and the analysis of the existing buildings according to these studies
is essential. This represents the aim of this research and the other is to present design
strategies for minimizing the negative impact of climatic factors on energy demand in
these buildings. To approach the research objectives, the climate of the region was
initially investigated. In an attempt to evaluate some of the current housing in the
Karakol district of Famagusta in terms of the climatic factors, three types of residential
apartments were identified and evaluated through observation, interview, and also by
the distribution and complication of qualitative and statistical questionnaires to and by
the occupants of the apartments. In this paper, basic climatic problems, as a result of
which lead to increased energy consumption in residential apartments in respect of
heating and cooling were identified and reported.
