Water and Energy - traps, pitfalls and success

As the green building industry evolves so too does the knowledge, design principles and technological fixes put forward for a carbon-constrained world. The rate of change is becoming rapid and choosing the right systems for your building is not the black-and-white solution it once was. There are more options and more “quick fixes” than ever before – but which is right for you?

Water and energy – traps, pitfalls and success cuts through the hype to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of tri-generation and blackwater systems and examines the alternatives available for your building.

Learn which water and energy solutions stack up environmentally and financially with frank discussion and a practical case study in this enlightening Summit course.

This introductory course is recommended for building professionals new to Green Star who wish to learn more about environmentally sustainable building solutions for water and energy use.
