With a plethora of legislation driving the uptake of micro-renewable energy generation in the built environment, architects play a fundamental role in incorporating these technologies into their designs. |
|
| It is widely agreed that before considering renewable energy, architects must ensure they reduce overall energy consumption of the building and optimise the energy efficiency of it’s form and fabric. However, once this has been achieved, designers are being asked to integrate renewable energy technologies into their schemes in order to meet local authority 10-20% renewables obligations. With significant confusion surrounding the commercial viability of current technologies, architects must be confident that they can specify micro renewables which will function effectively, compliment their designs and be appropriate for the site in question. |
|
| Building on the successes of previous events, the 3rd AJ designing with renewable energy conference brings you latest Government and local authority policy on renewables. It will assess the feasible capabilities of current technologies and offer approaches to integrating them into your schemes whilst maintaining the quality of the design. |
