The use of low thermal conductivity materials plays an important role in the construction energy-efficient buildings. Indeed, improvement properties building walls reduces energy consumption. This study aims to determine and balances a enveloped with Typha australis on one hand, without other hand (a constructed conventional materials) using commercial software Visual TTH. results heat loss calculations show that is 62% more efficient than building. Also, studies air-conditioning needs resulted savings 1577.136 kWh per year for building, i.e. 1219 kg CO2 avoided air according SENELEC emission factor 0.773/MWh Senegal.
