The UK government has published a range of heating- and energy-related reports that may be of interest to members working on retro-fit issues for historic buildings and the problems that can exist when inappropriate methods and theologies are used on traditionally constructed buildings.
Scoping review of heating controls – summarises the findings of an evidence review of the energy savings, cost-effectiveness and usability of different types of heating controls.
Heat meter accuracy testing – a research report to evaluate the accuracy of heat meters when subject to installation and other errors, and to provide a robust evidence base to be able to assess errors.
Building Energy Efficiency Survey (BEES) – aims to improve and update the evidence of how energy is used, and to provide an assessment of the abatement opportunities for all non-domestic premises across England and Wales.
Household Energy Efficiency National Statistics, headline release November 2016 – includes measures installed under the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) and the Green Deal schemes. It also includes further analysis and geographical breakdowns of ECO measures, ECO delivery costs, estimated carbon and energy savings from measures installed and the supply chain.
