Implication

Review synthesizes findings on daylighting design, improving building energy efficiency and occupant comfort across climates.

Key Points

  • The aim is to analyze how daylighting strategies can enhance building performance while addressing energy demands and occupant comfort in India’s diverse climates.
  • Synthesis of 31 peer-reviewed studies published between 2015 and 2025.
  • Analysis of daylight performance using climate-based simulations and optimization approaches.
  • Assessment of design patterns across various climatic zones and building typologies.
  • Moderate window-to-wall ratios of 16-20% achieved balanced daylight autonomy and glare control.
  • Optimized height-to-width ratios enhanced spatial daylight autonomy by up to 93%.
  • Dynamic shading systems provided approximately 26% lighting energy savings compared to isolated studies.
