Abstract
Results show that detached houses displayed the highest range of life cycle energy and exhibited the greatest absolute and percentage reductions compared to other house types, as life cycle energy ranges from 386 - 614Â kWh/m2Â yr, 225 - 261Â kWh/m2Â yr and 126 - 137Â kWh/m2Â yr for all house scenarios, respectively. Using these results an assessment is provided for policy makers on a holistic view of the life cycle performance of existing dwellings.
