PASSIVE SOLAR DESIGN TALK
Thursday, October 31, 2019
7:15pm – 9:00pm
Narrabeen Tramshed Community Centre, Lakeview Room (map)
1395 Pittwater Road
Narrabeen
Join Professor Alistair Sproul, Head of the School of Photovoltaic and Renewable Energy Engineering at the University of NSW, to discuss passive design for buildings, energy efficiency, and renewable energy. He has over 30 years’ experience working in the renewable energy and energy efficiency sector, including for a number of Photovoltaic companies such as BP Solar and Pacific Solar. in R&D before taking on an academic position in 2001, carrying out research and teaching at the University of New South Wales.
Passive design is about designing buildings that are well insulated, shaded in summer and make use of the sun’s energy for heating in winter. In addition to good passive design the recent rapid lowering of costs for Photovoltaics (PV) – means that roof mounted solar systems can supply the majority of the energy required by a residential building. The cost of a fully installed PV system in Australia, with no subsidies, is now able to provide energy to a home at a cost of about one-third of the cost of electricity purchased through the grid and about half the cost of natural gas. In combination with energy efficient appliances, lighting and highly efficient reverse cycle air conditioning – it is technically and economically feasible for buildings to greatly lower their carbon footprint without compromising comfort.
Entry is by donation to cover costs - all are welcome!
Organic teas and coffees available bring a plate to share food or swap plants, books, CDs, items for your home or garden.

Native bees are a critical part of our biodiversity as pollinators of native fauna and foods. Their numbers are impacted due to the use of insecticides and pesticides in public spaces and in gardens. Tonight we hear about an initiative to help our bees thrive.
Sophia Kloosterman is involved in building Sydney's 'B & B Highway' . 'B & B' stands for 'Bed and Breakfasts for Bees, Birds, and Biodiversity'. These B & Bs or ‘pollen booths' are located across Sydney to provide year-round pollinating plants for native stingless beehives and insect hotels to create habitat for our threatened pollinators.
Sophie works with FoodFaith alongside the Department of Education to implement the B & Bs into schools and to incorporate a citizen science initiative for the identification and generation of pollinator data. The aim is to transform Sydney’s urban environment into a landscape where bees can thrive and oases of restorative ecologies.
Entry is by donation ($5 is recommended) all are welcome!
Organic teas and coffees available bring a plate to share food or swap plants, books, CDs, items for your home or garden.
