Mixed-use neighbourhood to maximise urban energy community potential [PDF]
Renewable energy communities (REC) are key drivers in promoting energy transition to renewable energy sources (RES). To maximise local potential for RECs, matching demand and local production requires the integration of different load profiles ...

Improved occupancy monitoring in non-domestic buildings
Measuring occupancy can facilitate energy efficiency in non-domestic buildings, when control systems are able to adjust heating and cooling based on demand rather than fixed schedules. The variable “occupancy profile” itself is rarely considered as a control system parameter in building energy management systems (BEMS), and this is largely because ...

Overheating and energy use in urban office buildings in a warming climate
Buildings are responsible for one‐third of the UK's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The move to reduce emissions has resulted in recent stringent building regulations primarily aimed at reducing heating and associated energy use, often by improving the ...
