Assignment details
You will act as an energy consultant and provide an assessment on an existing building of your choice. Your task is to prepare a 2000-word +/- 10% (excluding references and appendices) portfolio that assesses the current energy performance of the building and proposes feasible and appropriate energy systems to further improve it.

The portfolio should cover the following aspects:

An overview of the building's attributes, such as function, area, floors, year of construction, materials and any other information you consider relevant for the portfolio.

A critical evaluation of the current inefficiencies, current energy performance and carbon emission of the building.

A detailed proposal of what energy systems could be applied and how, in order to improve the energy performance of the building, including appropriate justification and critical evaluation of the proposed energy systems. Get reliable and affordable assignment help today! 

Provide guidance on low carbon construction approaches, if it was suggested to rebuild the building.

The portfolio should be of a professional standard and any referenced material must be presented using the standard Harvard system.

Suggestion: The use of figures tables to illustrate or summarise the main ideas of the discussion is encouraged. However, all figures, tables, etc. should be appropriately labelled, captioned and referenced, as well mentioned and described in the main text.
