This book goes beyond the introduction of the 'green building' philosophy and the many styles and methodologies (which are discussed at length in volume 1) and provides in-depth design advice for creating real, low energy, sustainable buildings. It provides easily understood explanations of how low energy buildings need to be desaigned and how many of the new eco-technologies such as photovoltaics, heat pumps and fuel cells actually work. The book includes advice on building design aspects such as site layout and orientation to maximise solar gain, building envelope and fabric, renewable technologies, environmental factors, lighting strategies, heating and cooling systems and lots more.
