The guide comprises: an introduction to LZC energy sources, focusing on building-integrated/building-attached applications; set of calculation methods to enable the carbon dioxide emissions reduction potential of individual LZC energy sources to be calculated in domestic and non-domestic building applications; outline guidance on key issues for certain LZC energy sources where this is lacking in current literature; and references to recommended performance standards and guidance information.
