| Résumé: | The objective of this work is to analyze the effect of climate on the economic and environmental parameters
of a thermal insulation material based on recycled cardboard reinforced with date palm fibers. In
addition, a comparative study between the studied material and three conventional thermal insulating
materials was carried out. Based on the degree-day concept, the annual heating and cooling transmission
loads were determined for six Moroccan climate zones. Then, by using a life cycle analysis, the optimal
insulation thicknesses, energy savings and payback periods have been determined. The results obtained
in this study show that the optimal insulation thicknesses increase with the increase in the total number
of heating and cooling degree-days, which results in an increase in cost savings and a reduction in the
payback period. Based on the climate of the regions studied and the type of insulation material, the optimal
thickness value of the insulation materials studied ranges from 0.02 to 0.17 m. In addition, the savings
are between 53.78 and 65.88 $/m2 and the payback period is between 1.28 and 2.94 years.
