The climate of Ukraine, which is located in several climatic zones, provides hot periods in summer and autumn-spring times and periods of heating houses in winter and off-season. An important factor influencing the energy saving of buildings is solar energy, from which it is necessary to protect against overheating during periods of overheating and use its heat during the operation of the heating system. Green spaces are actively used in modern cities to form the microclimate of streets, protect facades from overheating, create shading for windows, terraces and balconies. This is aesthetic and ecological. In winter, plants that shed their leaves open access for solar radiation to enter the premises, which contributes to energy saving. Modern architecture of cities and individual buildings provides for a variety of uses of green spaces: individual trees, rows of trees along facades, plants on facades as overhangs, side edges or green curtains. This publication analyzes shading from edges, overhangs and curtains.
Keywords: Insolation, solar devices, solar maps, energy efficiency, solar energy.
