Abstract

This chapter of this research book provides the general introduction for the book by describing the background issues surrounding the modelling and simulation of energy consumption and carbon emissions, especially in the housing sector of the economy. The purpose and objectives of this research book are mainly to describe the use of the system dynamics method to model the housing energy and carbon emissions by focusing specifically on the UK housing stock. This chapter provides the structure of the research book, including its contributions and value.
