Solar building study. Final report. The Solaire house, Milton Keynes

Abstract

The Energy Performance Assessments (EPA) Project is sponsored by the Energy Technology Support Unit on behalf of the Department of Energy. It aims to accelerate the uptake of low-energy and passive solar designs of buildings, through the use of field trails on occupied buildings. These field trials assess energy, cost and amenity issues in low energy passive solar buildings. The methodology established in the first phase of the work laid down a `template of components`, to guide each case study. Each component dealt with an essential element of the holistic building appraisal, and within each component there was a `menu of techniques` by which the issues could be appraised. A rolling program will eventually investigate 32 occupied buildings including houses, commercial premises, schools, and other building types as appropriate, using the defined methodology. (author).
