Space heating in schools accounts for around 60% of their energy use and reducing the heating temperature by 1ºC can save 10% on heating bills. Other cost-saving measures can also be introduced, depending on the heating system installed and the condition of the building.
Experts will discuss how school buildings can be heated effectively, in an energy-efficient way, covering:
- how to make use of a heating audit
- the heating technologies best suited to education buildings
- how heating controls can impact demand and improve efficiency
- the effects of temperature–and related metrics–on pupil learning and behavior
- how to minimize heat loss and reduce overall heating demand
