Overview
Join us, together with guest speaker Professor Will Swan, Director of Energy House Labs, to hear about Energy House 2.0 - a world leading energy performance test facility at University of Salford.
The new £16m facility will investigate the future of housing, looking at issues such as off-site construction, smart homes, and energy use.
The laboratory, currently under construction, will contain two environmental chambers with the ability to achieve temperatures of between -20˚C to +40˚C plus simulated wind, rain, snow, and solar light.
With the ability to replicate environmental conditions applicable to 95% of the world’s population within the facility, it will be relevant on a global scale.
Energy House 2.0 builds on the work already completed with Salford Energy House, a project which has enabled key changes to UK housing stock to save energy.
