Resident’s issues and interactions with grid-connected photovoltaic energy system in high-performing low-energy dwellings : a user’s perspective
Presentation / Conference
Whaley, D., Berry, S., Moore, T., Sherriff, G., & O’Leary, T. Resident’s issues and interactions with grid-connected photovoltaic energy system in high-performing low-energy dwellings : a user’s perspective. Presented at International Conference on Sustainability in Energy and Buildings

Solar PV systems have become common-place in many cities and regions, and is a core technology in purpose-built low-energy homes, but evidence is emerging that in many cases electricity output may be significantly lower than expected. Information fro... Read More about Resident’s issues and interactions with grid-connected photovoltaic energy system in high-performing low-energy dwellings : a user’s perspective.

Does tenure matter for occupant experiences of low-energy housing?
Presentation / Conference
Moore, T., Sherriff, G., Whaley, D., & Berry, S. Does tenure matter for occupant experiences of low-energy housing?. Presented at 10th International Conference in Sustainability on Energy and Buildings (SEB’18), Gold Coast, Australia

International policy settings are looking toward low-energy and near zero-energy homes as a solution to address environmental impacts, particularly anthropogenic climate change. There is increasing research evaluating sus-tainable housing development... Read More about Does tenure matter for occupant experiences of low-energy housing?.

Low-energy housing : are we asking the right questions?
Presentation / Conference
Berry, S., Moore, T., Sherriff, G., & Whaley, D. Low-energy housing : are we asking the right questions?. Presented at 10th International Conference in Sustainability on Energy and Buildings (SEB’18)

Purpose-built low-energy homes have been the subject of policy and researcher scrutiny for many years, and there is plenty of evidence that they deliver substantial energy and carbon emission savings. But are these the best metrics to assess their be... Read More about Low-energy housing : are we asking the right questions?.
