If you've ever wondered how leading architectural firms successfully embed energy modelling into their practices, this book is for you. Featuring expert contributions from leading architects and practices, this book illustrates architects' approaches to learning, sharing and integrating energy modelling across a range of design projects, in both small and large firms in the UK and internationally. Discussing the practical and business implications of embedding energy modelling in practice, this practical guide is an essential manual for the energy-literate architect.
