It approaches energy and carbon emissions in the housing sector as a complex socio-technical problem involving the analysis of intrinsic interrelationships among dwellings, occupants and the environment. Based on an examination of the UK housing sector but with relevance worldwide, the book demonstrates how the systems dynamics simulation can be used as a learning laboratory regarding future trends in housing energy and carbon emissions. The authors employ a pragmatic research strategy, involving the collection of both qualitative and quantitative data to develop a model. The book enriches readers’ understanding of the complexity involved in housing energy and carbon emissions from a systems-thinking perspective. As such, it will be of interest to researchers in the fields of architectural engineering, housing studies and climate change, while also appealing to industry practitioners and policymakers specializing in housing energy.Green Energy and Technology,1865-3529Energy policyEnergy policySustainable architectureBuildings—Design and constructionBuildingConstructionEngineering, ArchitecturalClimatic changesPhysicsEnergy consumptionEnergy Policy, Economics and Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/112000Sustainable Architecture/Green Buildingshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/122000Building Construction and Designhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23012Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021Energy Efficiencyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/118000Energy policy.Energy policy.Sustainable architecture.Buildings—Design and construction.Building.Construction.Engineering, Architectural.Climatic changes.Physics.Energy consumption.Energy Policy, Economics and Management.Sustainable Architecture/Green Buildings.Building Construction and Design.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulation.Energy Efficiency.307.1216Oladokun Michael Gbolagadeauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut875343Aigbavboa Clinton Ohisauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910299596603321Simulation-Based Analysis of Energy and Carbon Emissions in the Housing Sector1954325UNINA
