Funded Activity Summary

Advancing the Thermal Insulation Performance of Australian Roofing Systems. To reduce the environmental impact of houses, state governments have mandated performance requirements on the energy efficiency of buildings. This research will develop advanced design techniques for the application of insulation in buildings, improving their performance. This will increase the effficiency of new buildings reducing Australia's greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, the peak power demand from residential buildings will reduce, decreasing the need to upgrade our electrical infrastructure. The research will enable more cost effective insulation solutions to be developed in the building industry and increase employment in the insulation industry.
