Michael will be presenting on his current work undertaking analysis of house energy rating data obtained from the more than 450,000 Universal Certificates that have been created as part of the NatHERS energy efficiency compliance requirements for new houses within the NCC. He will share a preview of the interactive data visualisation dashboard he created to allow users to explore the data geospatially to discover area-specific trends and practices.

Michael joined CSIRO in 1992 and is a senior experimental scientist in CSIRO’s Land and Water and has a degree in architecture.
