Hello Arcola Energy
I had this idea to do my dissertation on Arcola Energy project. I am doing Environmental Science degree and I had that idea already last year, when I was doing my dissertation proposal. However, I had a placement offer and now the dissertation is on-hold until October. The main idea would be looking at how you aim to achieve carbon neutrality, looking at resource efficiencies, using renewables, education of staff etc.
This would obviously involve a significant amount of communication and collaboration. Also, as I am doing a science degree, I would also need some core data on the energy usage for example; doing interviews with key personnel and possibly questionnaires.
Is that something you would agree to do? Presumably you have a clear idea of where are you at in the process, but ideally the findings of my dissertation would prove beneficial to you as well.
Kind Regards
Margit
Hi Arcola Energy Team.
I’m writing a report on sustainability and arts and culture buildings in London for a small architecture firm.
As a key power for the importance of eco efficiency in arts buildings I would love the opportunity to ask you a few questions.
Please contact me on the attached email.
Thank you.
