Abstract

The three main methods of energy analysis are outlined and a brief description given of a hybrid analysis method that makes optimum use of all three. The procedures involved in carrying out a hybrid analysis using the case of steel produced from recycled scrap are described and the embodied energy coefficients of a range of building materials are tabulated.
