DESCRIPTION:*Abstract:*\n\nIn the UK\, the building stock accounts for alm
 ost 50% of the total annual energy consumption. If the UK is to meets its 
 targets to reduce emissions by 80% in 2050 then significant reduction in e
 nergy use is needed.\n\nThe first step towards making reductions is unders
 tanding how\, where and why energy is used\, in both domestic and non-dome
 stic settings. Research is underway in universities internationally to ans
 wer these questions\, using a variety of different approaches. This semina
 r will discuss the different approaches to understanding energy consumptio
 n in the building stock.\n\n*Speakers:*\n\n* Dr James Keirstead\, Research
