Projects

Heat Mitigation Program-Darwin-Northern Territory
This project presents the mitigation study for the CBD area of Darwin, identifies hot spots in the city, to develop and evaluate appropriate Urban heat island (UHI) mitigation scenarios.


Alice Springs Heat Mitigation Study
This project investigates the characteristics of the local climate the CBD area of Alice Springs, NT, identifies hot spots in the city, to develop and evaluate appropriate local climate mitigation scenarios such as cool materials, urban shading devices, water-based technologies and greenery.


Preliminary Design of a Smart Climatic Road in Phillip St. Parramatta
The present study is aiming to pre-design and optimize a smart climatic street in Parramatta, named Philip st., exhibiting high climatic, environmental, and energy performance.


Improving the Future Climate and Microclimate in the City of Parramatta, Sydney
The present study is aiming to analyse the problem of urban overheating in the City of Parramatta Local Government Area (LGA), evaluate its impact on energy, peak electricity demand and health.


Urban Cooling Analysis Services
The project deals with the optimization of the climatic and microclimatic conditions in four future precincts in the South Creek of Sydney.


Sydney's Third City
Overheating of cities is causing serious energy, environmental and health problems and it has a serious impact on the whole economic and cultural life of cities. To counterbalance the impact of high urban temperatures several mitigation technologies have been proposed, developed and implemented.


Advanced Hybrid Ventilation Systems for Schools
This study was performed to propose, implement, monitor and evaluate the performance of proper advanced hybrid ventilation technologies able to improve indoor air quality and achieve thermal comfort conditions.


Driving Increased Utilisation of Cool Roofs on Large-Footprint Buildings
The aim of the project was to develop evidence-based cool roof design and cost-benefit calculation resources, mainly focussed on large-footprint buildings, and specifically tuned to the needs of Australian industry.


Energy Efficiency in Social Housing
This study aims to monitor indoor environmental quality of low-income social housing households in New South Wales. It adds evidence-based findings on the performance of residential buildings and contributes to improve the (IEQ) conditions of social housing.


Menangle Park
This project performs analysis of Menangle Park precinct existing and future scenarios to evaluate the effectiveness of different heat mitigation strategies.
