I'm looking for hard data to back up low energy building designs. Have low energy buildings performed, were there any issues with constructions, are there any lessons learned?
There are tons of academic publications outlining case studies on specific technologies which you can find in Google Scholar by searching your desired technology.
If your interest is more general, you can check out a couple good high performance building case study databases online:

Following you on RG so you can view my profile to answer your question on performance of building energy as well as its low exergy consumption. please check one or two of my articles in my profile, if they can be of help to you.
