The potential for cool roofs to improve the energy efficiency of single storey warehouse-type retail buildings in Australia : a simulation case study (2017)
Journal Article
Seifhashemi, M., Capra, B., Miller, W., & Bell, J. (2018). The potential for cool roofs to improve the energy efficiency of single storey warehouse-type retail buildings in Australia : a simulation case study. Energy and Buildings, 158, 1393-1403

Australia’s commercial building stock exceeds 134 million m2 of net lettable area, with retail buildings contributing 35% to this sector’s energy use. The energy intensity of retail buildings in hotter climates is higher than the national average, as...
