Casals, M; Gangolells, M; Macarulla, M; Forcada, N; Fuertes, A; Jones, RV (Elsevier BV, 2020-03-01) -
The building energy performance gap: Up close and personal
de Wilde, P; Jones, RV (Dublin, Ireland, 2014-04-03)Measurements of completed projects confirm significant gaps between the predicted and actual energy performance of buildings. This is due to: actual occupant behaviour; weather conditions; workmanship/installation errors; ... -
Central heating settings and heating energy demand in low energy social housing in the United Kingdom
Bruce-Konuah, NA; Jones, RV; Fuertes, A; De Wilde, P (Elsevier, 2019-02)This paper compares the central heating settings and the heating energy use performance of six flats and two houses built to low energy standards (Code for Sustainable Homes Levels 4 and 5) with a near identical flat and ... -

A comparison between thermostat and thermostatic radiator valve setpoint temperatures in UK social housing
Bruce-Konuah, NA; Jones, RV; Fuertes, A (Dublin Institute of Technology, Dublin, Ireland, 2018-07-30)In the UK, in centrally heated dwellings, space heating is commonly controlled by a whole house thermostat as well as thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) fitted on individual radiators. TRV settings define a setpoint ... -

“Damp in bathroom. Damp in back room. It's very depressing!” exploring the relationship between perceived housing problems, energy affordability concerns, and health and well-being in UK social housing
Boomsma, GT; Pahl, S; Jones, RV; Fuertes, A (Elsevier, 2017-07)Social housing residents often struggle with achieving adequate levels of warmth in their home on a limited household budget. Additionally, other housing problems such as damp are common. Previous research has found a ... -
Determinants of high electrical energy demand in UK homes: Appliance ownership and use
Jones, RV; Lomas, KJ (Elsevier, 2016-04-01)This paper provides an analysis of the appliance ownership and use factors contributing to high electrical energy demand in UK homes. The data were collected during a large-scale, city-wide survey, carried out in Leicester, ... -

Do Psychological Factors Relate to Energy Saving Behaviours in Inefficient and Damp Homes? A study among English social housing residents
Boomsma, C; Jones, RV; Pahl, S; Fuertes, A (Elsevier, 2019-01)Social housing residents are vulnerable to rising energy costs. Reductions in energy use through behaviour change may be part of the solution but require an insight into the factors that relate to energy saving behaviour ... -
Energy saving behaviours among social housing tenants: Exploring the relationship with dwelling characteristics, monetary concerns, and psychological motivations
Boomsma, C; Jones, RV; Pahl, S; Fuertes, A (Coimbra, 2016-09-08)Increasing our understanding of the factors that influence energy saving behaviour could help in the development of more effective energy saving interventions. This paper describes the first phase of the EnerGAware project ... -

The gap between simulated and measured energy performance: A case study across six identical new-build flats in the UK
Jones, RV; Fuertes, A; de Wilde, P (Hyderabad, India, 2015-12-07)Monitoring of completed buildings often identifies significant gaps between the predicted and actual energy use of buildings. This is referred to as the ‘energy performance gap’. To date, most research on the energy ... -
Measured indoor temperatures, thermal comfort and overheating risk: Post-occupancy evaluation of low energy houses in the UK
Jones, RV; Goodhew, S; de Wilde, P (Elsevier, 2016-06-19)There is growing concern in Western Europe that higher insulation and air tightness of residential buildings leads to increased overheating risk. This paper discusses temperature monitoring from identical houses in the ... -
Measured indoor temperatures, thermal comfort and overheating risk: Post-Occupancy evaluation of low energy houses in the UK
Jones, RV; Goodhew, S; de Wilde, P (Fuzhou, China, 2015-11-15)There is growing concern in Western Europe that higher insulation and air tightness of residential buildings may lead to increased overheating risk during the summer. This risks undoing the energy savings as it may lead ... -
