Many retrofit projects went wrong in the UK principally because of the application of inappropriate retrofit solutions, which resulted in damp issues, with some leaving houses in worse conditions than pre-retrofit. Various online tools were developed... Read More about Development and pilot evaluation of an online retrofit decision-making tool for homeowners. [Dataset].

In Algeria, the adoption of colonial markets (halles) highlights how various environmental parameters created a distinctive architecture in which daylight, ventilation, and acoustics were centrally based on sensorial relationships. Using thematic con... Read More about Urban and architectural ambiences' complexities in the nineteenth-century colonial markets: the case of the Saharan city of Biskra, Algeria..

Predicting energy savings of the UK housing stock under a step-by-step energy retrofit scenario towards net-zero. (2022)
Journal Article
BENNADJI, A., SEDDIKI, M., ALABID, J., LAING, R. and GRAY, D. 2022. Predicting energy savings of the UK housing stock under a step-by-step energy retrofit scenario towards net-zero. Energies [online], 15(9), article 3082. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/en15093082

The UK has one of the least energy-efficient housing stocks in Europe. By 2030, the emissions from UK homes need to fall by at least 24% from 1990 levels to meet the UK's ambitious goal, which is reaching net-zero emissions. The originality of this p...
