BRAVO-HIDALGO, Debrayan  and  BAEZ-HERNANDEZ, Alexander. Technologies of zero energies buildings. A review. Ing. compet. [online]. 2019, vol.21, n.2, 7150.  Epub Aug 23, 2019. ISSN 0123-3033.  https://doi.org/10.25100/iyc.v21v2i.7150.

Buildings represent a significant proportion of total carbon and energy emissions worldwide and play an important role in the formulation of sustainable development strategies. Several countries have adopted or consider the possibility of establishing Zero Energy Buildings (ZEB) as their future energy targets to alleviate the problems related to the depletion of energy resources and the deterioration of the environment. The objective of this contribution is to expose the research trends in ZEB technologies.

To achieve this goal, the contribution is supported by an article review carried out in the academic directory Scopus. The information extracted from this catalog was processed in the VOSviewer software, through which the text mining, map of terms and networks of investigative action was carried out. The consumption of energy and resources of buildings, from the design stage; it has become the most studied research topic since 2015. The research detects niches of research in three areas: life cycle cost analysis, environmental impact, and social policies.

Keywords : Building; Energy; Research Trends; Text Mining.
