Impact of a Warming Climate on Hospital Energy Use and Decarbonization: An Australian Building Simulation Study

The high energy use of hospitals and healthcare facilities globally contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, a large percentage of this energy use is attributed to space heating, cooling and ventilation, and is hence correlated to the climate. While the energy performance of Austra...
