White Paper on Clean Heating & Cooling Technologies and Thermal Energy Storage for Buildings (2024)
Report
Costa Pereira, C. (2024). White Paper on Clean Heating & Cooling Technologies and Thermal Energy Storage for Buildings. Implementation Working Group on Energy Efficiency in Buildings (IWG5)

The built environment is responsible for 35% of the greenhouse gas emissions and 85% of the buildings in Europe are older than 25 years. It is therefore a big task to reach a 100% renewable heated and cooled built environment. This White Paper descri...

Assessing the Impacts of Advanced Heating Controls in UK Households: A Comparative Study and Systematic Review (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Morton, A. (2023, November). Assessing the Impacts of Advanced Heating Controls in UK Households: A Comparative Study and Systematic Review. Presented at Behave 2023: The 7th European Conference on Behaviour Change for Energy Efficiency, Maastrich, The Netherlands

With climate change presenting unprecedented challenges globally, the need for effective, and sustainable, energy transition measures have become increasingly paramount. The domestic sector, whilst responsible for a substantial share of energy consum...

Destination Net Zero – Net Zero Events Baseline Review (2022)
Report
Robertson, M., Ali-Knight, J., Barnes, C. A., Brogan, J., Brown, C., Myers, K., & Wharmby, C. (2022). Destination Net Zero – Net Zero Events Baseline Review. VisitScotland

Guided by the key themes of measuring, monitoring, decarbonisation and adaptation, an extensive body of knowledge in these four areas relating to carbon emission and management in the context of events is reviewed and condensed for confident referenc...

A method for constrained energy-maximising control of heaving wave-energy converters via a nonlinear frequency response
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Guiver, C. (2024, August). A method for constrained energy-maximising control of heaving wave-energy converters via a nonlinear frequency response. Presented at The 8th IEEE Conference on Control Technology and Applications (CCTA) 2024, Newcastle Upon Tyne

A theoretical grounding is presented for justifying how frequency domain methods may be applied in the determination of constrained extracted-energy maximising controls in wave-energy conversion applications subject to nonlinear models. A computation... Read More about A method for constrained energy-maximising control of heaving wave-energy converters via a nonlinear frequency response.
