Overheating and energy use in urban office buildings in a warming climate
Japan Architectural Review, 2023 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 ...

Evaluation of Energy Use in Public Housing in Lagos, Nigeria: Prospects for Renewable Energy Sources
International Journal of Renewable Energy Development, 2016 Even though domestic energy can be from either renewable or non-renewable sources, the former is preferred because of its role in reducing both the operational energy intensity and carbon footprint.

Opposition diagrams for automorphisms of large spherical buildings [PDF]
, 2018 Let $\theta$ be an automorphism of a thick irreducible spherical building $\Delta$ of rank at least $3$ with no Fano plane residues. We prove that if there exist both type $J_1$ and $J_2$ simplices of $\Delta$ mapped onto opposite simplices by $\theta ...

Categorising emissions in non-domestic buildings
, 2023 This report explores the pros and cons of different methods to apportion measured direct emissions from heat use categories in non-domestic buildings. Through analysis and stakeholder engagement, it also assesses different practical and feasible ways to regulate direct emissions at a building level.

Energy Led Refurbishment of Non-Domestic Buildings - Who Leads? [PDF]
Linköping Electronic Conference Proceedings, 2011 Innovative and efficient refurbishment offers significant carbon savings and is a growing activity, driven by Government imposing energy or carbon related standards and policies upon building owners. Many businesses are becoming aware of the wider benefits of these improvements and therefore, their requirements as construction industry clients are ...
