Seminar
Carbon, Specification, the User and Nudge: The Behavioural Economics of Heating
This CPD provides an introduction to behavioural economics and looks at the way people use heating controls. It will help you to understand the following topics:
- Understand behavioural economics as it pertains to heating and why architects need to know about nudge
- Understand why consumers have demands of heating that go beyond stated needs and do not act either in their own or the wider interest with respect to energy consumption
- Understand research on what users say they want from heating controls and on how they actually use them
- Understand what would constitute effective heating control with emissions and comfort in mind and how to specify a control system that meets both the public interest and that of the user

Seminar
Space Heating & Hot Water Systems - Zero Net Carbon Emissions
The purpose of the CPD is to provide information for the specification of sustainable Space & Water Heating Systems for domestic or commercial buildings reducing energy consumption or maximizing internally where possible the energy generated on site, reducing environmental impact with Zero Emissions. The CPD covers: -
- Solar & Batteries
- Heat Pumps (Air to Water)
- Buffer & Hot Water Tanks
- Heat Batteries (Aquafficient)
- Aquafficient Eco+ (Internal Heat Pump)
- Electric Boilers
- Electric Heaters

By the end of the CPD you should have a greater understanding of:
- Climate Change and the drivers for change.
- National Grid Energy Forms G98 & G99, design considerations for solar & Batteries.
- Heat Battery, how they work and their applications.
- Internal Heat Pump, their use for hot water and where to site them.
- The different heating option, Heat Pumps, Electric Boilers and Electric Heaters.
