energy
Warwick Smith, manager of acoustics, building and energy, has had a special interest in energy conservation and a more sustainable environment since the 1974 oil crisis.
energy efficient buildings
Year after year energy consumption increases and with it so does the amount of greenhouse gases.
Many methods are being developed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; wind power, solar power, tidal power being just a few. However, one of the most effective methods is to improve the energy efficiency of buildings - especially houses.
acoustics, building and energy have worked for many years to assist with design improvements to reduce energy consumption.
