The series of technical publications 'Energy Efficiency in Buildings' was introduced by British Gas during the International Energy Conservation Month, October 1979, as part of the industry's support of Government energy initiatives. The publications consist of a compilation of technical studies mainly prepared by the staff of British Gas Watson House Research Station. The aim of 'Energy Efficiency in Buildings' is to contribute to the training and development of those concerned with building design and the efficient use of fuel.
