DESCRIPTION:Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Design in Hotels\nFrancisco 
 Guerrero Neguillo\, Reardon Smith Architects\n\nIn this lecture\, energy e
 fficiency and sustainable design in hotels will be discussed\, focussing o
 n two main areas:\n1)     Mechanical Service Systems (Energy Efficien
 cy Design in Hotels). Three different examples will be discussed: Air sour
 ce Heat Pumps\, Ground Source Heat Pumps\, VRF Systems (Variable Refrigera
 nt Flow).\n2)     Construction Systems (Envelope Design). Two differe
 nt examples will be explored: Thermally broken slabs\, Unitised Panels.\nT
 he aim of this lecture is to provide the designers with a good understandi
 ng of how the above mentioned systems function\, and how they can better b
 e integrated into their design.\n \nFrancisco Guerrero is an ARB accredit
 ed Architect and has a MSc in Energy Efficient and Sustainable Building fr
 om Oxford Brookes University. He works at Reardon Smith Architects\, which
  is an award–winning global leader in hotel and resort design. \n\nTailo
 ring building energy simulation to address economic barriers facing deep 
 retrofits \n\nDr Adam Rysanek\, University of Cambridge\n\nAbstract TBD\n\
 nAdam first joined the Energy Efficient Cities initiative in Fall 2009 as 
 a PhD student. In 2013\, after completing his PhD\, Adam joined the EECi a
 s a Research Associate. In this new role\, he's been developing the work p
 ackage for the EECi City of Westminster project (to be rolled out in Febru
 ary 2014)\, and pursuing investigative research into integrated distribute
 d energy cogeneration with electric vehicle charging. Adam has been the le
 ad developer of the Distributed Energy Resource Modelling Suite (DERMOS). 
 The DEmand LOad REconStructor (DELORES)\, an offshoot of DERMOS\, was rec
 ently packaged and released as generalized software tool for the research
  and non-research community.\n
