This paper presents an analysis of the resilience to climate change of a direct adiabatic cooling system integrated within an industrial building. The system is a solution that utilizes humidified porous material to lower the air temperature without requiring external energy. In this study, the system is evaluated for two typical climate periods (historical and future) for a Mediterranean climate, using indicators of energy performance, thermal comfort and water consumption.
