Building performance evaluation

Building performance evaluation is crucial to closing the performance gap. We must ensure that our buildings and systems deliver all that they promise, in terms of energy demand, energy savings, thermal comfort, and indoor air quality.

RECENT PROJECTS

Smart Energy Research Laboratory – Domestic Operational Energy Ratings (DORs)

Technical Evaluation of SMETER Technologies (TEST)

International Energy Agency EBC Annex 71: Building energy performance assessment based on in-situ measurements

Digital Energy Feedback and Control Technology Optimisation (DEFACTO)
