University of Portsmouth

Masters students from the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Design (2010-11) and the Department of Architecture (2016-18) have used the Cathedral for environmental and energy analysis studies. The outputs from these studies have added to our knowledge base.

Diocese of London

The Diocese of London have developed an energy benchmarking model aimed at church buildings. They are a driving force along with the Diocese of Truro behind the push to record the Church of England carbon footprint in a common format across dioceses.  Benchmarking our two main buildings as a trial using their model has helped better understand the role benchmarking can play in helping carbon reduction.
