Energy Efficiency and Adaptive Re-use of Buildings
We will examine the basic principles of making traditional Scottish buildings more energy efficient, with insights into current practical techniques.
Ticket sales are now closed for this event.
Join us to explore the practical ways and means of retrofitting Scotland’s traditional buildings effectively and economically. This session is taking place at the Holyrood Park Education Centre in Edinburgh and will include a thorough discussion of the underlying principles governing the need for improved energy efficiency.
A networking lunch will provide you with the opportunity to continue discussions.
Our full-day experience includes a tour of Holyrood Lodge, a small Victorian building recently retrofitted by Historic Environment Scotland (HES). You will be able to explore the lodge with a HES Senior Officer and discuss the range of best-practice energy efficiency techniques used in this building.
