Design Intent compared with Performance in Practice: Residential Heat Networks with Combined Heat and Power
… vast majority of reductions are attributed to heat networks with CHP. However, there is little evidence of the actual performance of these technologies in practice, including the scale of CO2 emissions reductions delivered. This research adopted a mixed method approach to evaluate if the local …

Synthesis of integrated solar thermal networks for domestic and industrial utilization
… solar thermal with domestic and industrial heat networks over multiple time frames based on discrete time intervals/periods. The study also presents a new simultaneous multi-period modelling and design framework for increasing thermal output of an integrated solar thermal-heat pump system. …

Using qualitative methods to understand non-technological aspects of domestic energy efficiency
… (including zero carbon homes, low carbon heat networks, and domestic energy efficiency schemes) are experienced and made sense of by a range of key actors. A further aim is to understand these interventions in the context of existing theories within the field of domestic energy efficiency …

Modelling sustainable energy and the implications for policy
… employed to examine the impact of using waste heat from power generation in heat networks. Linking heat and electricity sectors in this way affects both. The findings show that using waste heat is competitive and results in CO2 savings in both sectors. The second part of the thesis focuses on …
