In Episode 18 of First Fuel, Energy Efficiency Council CEO Luke Menzel is joined by two guests: Paul Ruyssevelt, Professor of Energy and Building Performance at University College London’s Energy Institute, and Carlos Flores, Director of the National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS).
Luke, Paul and Carlos chat about the role of the International Energy Agency’s Energy in Buildings and Communities Programme in driving global collaboration on high performance buildings. Along the way they cover the new field of building energy epidemiology, the prospects for demand response in commercial buildings, and whether electricity or hydrogen will win the race to decarbonise the built environment.
