Whole-life design and resource reuse of a solar water heater in the UK (2019)
Journal Article
Saint, R. M., Pomponi, F., Garnier, C., & Currie, J. I. (2019). Whole-life design and resource reuse of a solar water heater in the UK. Proceedings of the ICE - Engineering Sustainability, 172(3), 153-164. https://doi.org/10.1680/jensu.17.00068

Passive solar systems are often designed primarily with efficiency in mind, and research efforts are concentrated towards gaining an increase in performance. However, due to the multiple materials used, their manufacturing processes, a lifespan that... Read More about Whole-life design and resource reuse of a solar water heater in the UK.

Discrepancies between theoretical and actual heating demand in Scottish modern dwellings (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bros Williamson, J., Stinson, J., Garnier, C., & Currie, J. (2017, July). Discrepancies between theoretical and actual heating demand in Scottish modern dwellings. Presented at Passive Low Energy Architecture (PLEA) 2017 "Design to Thrive"

The study reports on the differences between the actual heat consumption profiles of twelve dwellings monitored for four years and their predicted heat demand profiles as calculated by the UK Government’s Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP). This mon... Read More about Discrepancies between theoretical and actual heating demand in Scottish modern dwellings.
