Clare College

The Hillside Building is a Victorian structure within Clare College in Cambridge, providing accommodation and social spaces for postgraduate students. A detailed energy assessment of this pre-1900s building was conducted, analyzing the thermal performance of historic fabric and the condition of the existing mechanical systems and producing an EPC. The assessment highlighted key opportunities to reduce energy use and improve comfort, with a focus on upgrading the heating and ventilation systems to modern, efficient standards.  

Dynamic energy analysis and 3D modelling of the Hillside building at Clare College, evaluating performance against compliance criteria. The project assessed the energy efficiency of a Victorian structure, delivering an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) and achieving Building Regulations UK Part L (BRUKL) compliance.
