7 : E-POD
Energy Performance of Dwellings and Other non-domestic Buildings - Closing the credibility gap

PhotoThis project addresses the dual challenge of designing sustainable low energy housing while still providing thermal comfort under the warmer summer conditions produced by anthropogenic climate change. This is a key challenge for building designers in London and the South East.

Knowledge transfer arising from UrbanBuzz energy-linked projects and other world-class researchbased projects, as selected by an advisory panel, will principally target the design community in the South East at two events, one in the evening and one during the day, on the 7th July 2008. This event is planned for July 2008 and will include exhibitions, showcases, invited speakers and break-out sessions. Moreover, those connected with standards and good practice will join policymakers in the workshop/seminar event.

The event is being piloted to attract the design and practitioner community and to help showcase both UrbanBuzz energy-linked projects and the best of emerging research outputs. It also aims to provide a forum to discuss how their effectiveness can be delivered through knowledge transfer mechanisms – primarily education and training.

A dissemination plan, via partners’ websites and training materials, is being developed and the effectiveness and impact of this knowledge transfer mechanism will be evaluated when planning a future programme of events.
