The desire to exploit LZC energy sources is driving the rapid development of many technologies and these are increasingly being installed in buildings, e.g. small-scale and micro-CHP units, photovoltaic panels, and building-mounted wind generators. 'Low or Zero Carbon Energy Sources: Strategic Guide' provides sufficient information to enable the reader to decide if a particular LZC energy source is appropriate for the building under consideration and to estimate the potential for carbon dioxide emissions reduction.

Key features:

  • an introduction to LZC energy sources, focusing on building-integrated/building-attached applications;

  • a set of calculation methods to enable the carbon dioxide emissions reduction potential of individual LZC energy sources to be calculated in domestic and non-domestic building applications;

  • outline guidance on key issues for certain LZC energy sources where this is lacking in current literature; and

  • references to recommended performance standards and guidance information.
