Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting our partners at Energy House 2.0. Energy House 2.0, part of Energy House Labs at the University of Salford, is a cutting-edge research facility designed to help develop low-carbon technologies for the built environment. Inside Energy House 2.0, there are two environmental chambers each able to accommodate two detached houses. Under controlled conditions the team can recreate a wide variety of weather conditions including: - Temperatures ranging between -20˚C to +40˚C - Simulated wind - Rain - Snow - Solar radiation As part of Farrat's ongoing KTP initiatives, we are constantly testing our products to find the most efficient ways of supporting more sustainable building.

I'll see all of you fellow DE-geeks there! Looking like it'll be >freezing so that's a plus. EDIT: And for those interested - here's the final report from the Decarbonization Study: https://lnkd.in/gTTCTV2H
We are excited to attend the CampusEnergy2025 conference on February 3-6 in Boston, MA. The event is an unparalleled opportunity to learn from industry experts, discover cutting-edge technologies and connect with colleagues from across the district energy landscape. AECOM's Calum Thompson, P.E. along with Chad Sisco, PE, LEED AP of the University of California, Riverside, will be presenting "UC Riverside’s Roadmap to Central Steam Plant Decarbonization" on February 5th. We look forward to attending and connecting with industry leaders! Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eceq745r #AECOM #Energy #Decarbonization #Boston #CampusEnergy2025

ENVI-met now includes solar panels as a roofing material. Installing solar panels on buildings is a key approach to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and lowering our carbon footprint. In compact urban areas, ENVI-met’s solar access analysis helps predict potential solar gains by considering shading from buildings, vegetation, and reflections. Solargrams provide a quick annual solar analysis, considering sun paths and seasonal changes in nearby trees. ENVI-met also simulates the daily variation in panel surface temperature, helping optimize energy efficiency and reduce the urban heat island effect. Maximize your solar panel efficiency with ENVI-met and contribute to a greener urban environment. Learn more at www.envi-met.com! #envimet #solarpanels #energy #urbanheat

31,432mWh of power generated in the first year. An estimated £300,000 saving over the life of the panels. An advice note published by Historic England this week on adapting historic buildings for energy and carbon efficiency is accompanied by a case study on Chester Cathedral, detailing how planning consent was achieved to install 206 photovoltaic panels on the roof to help meet The Church of England's ambitious targets to be net zero by 2030. Read about how we helped to enable this project, its impact and lessons learned: https://lnkd.in/dCW54kcy
