Mind the energy performance gap

RIBA East Midlands

Shortlisted for the 2019 RIBA Presidents Award for Research, Amrutha Kishor &amp; Allan Joyce Architects  present the findings of their research

Whilst completing her MA at the University of Nottingham, Kerala-based practitioner, Amrutha Kishor, worked with Allan Joyce Architects to look at how energy performance differed between predicted and actual energy consumption in newly-built houses. The research project (Energy Performance Gaps in Residences in the UK) involved creating simple models of seven differing typologies/house designs completed by the Nottingham-based practice between 1998 and 2018 and used actual data from residents’ energy bills to show how software-generated predictions did not match actual energy use.Practice Director, Tricia Akers, will provide the context for the research and Presidents Awards submission, with a more detailed look at three of the typologies presented by researcher Amrutha Kishor; Architectural designer, Sara Saadouni will explain how the findings of the research have impacted subsequent projects undertaken by the practice. There will be an opportunity for questions at the end of the event which will be hosted by Chris Heuvel, RIBA Fellow and Chair of the RIBA East Midlands Research and Innovation Sub-group.    Terms and Conditions<ul><li>Registration of webinar attendance is for use by the registrant only.
