Abstract: green buildings that use renewable, ecologically clean energy of the surrounding environment for energy supply will be relevant. Green buildings are designed taking into account environmentally sustainable principles, which reduces the negative impact on the environment. This is important in the context of preserving natural resources and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Energy-efficient green buildings are usually more cost-effective in the long run. Investments in green technologies and materials pay off in reduced energy and building maintenance costs. When designing green buildings, architects and designers will face the task of increasing their energy efficiency due to the rational arrangement of transparent structures on the facades of buildings, taking into account the thermal balance of transparent and opaque structures of the building, structural features of windows, the coefficient of light transmission of windows and climatic features of the area (temperature, wind strength, incoming solar radiation). Research has been carried out and for the design of green buildings, graphic and analytical models have been developed to determine the rational parameters of window orientation, the azimuth and the angle of inclination (Aσ, ω) of the windows. A graphical method for the rational arrangement of transparent structures on the facades of buildings is proposed, which allows determining the rational orientation of windows and their location in the enclosing structures of green buildings, provided that heat losses through transparent structures do not exceed heat losses through walls.
