Description:

Yalumba winery has joined the Greenhouse Challenge of the Australian Greenhouse Office. They have designed a new display building in the Mount Gambier using low energy principals and wish to evaluate the performance of the building.

The project will monitor indoor and outdoor temperatures and will conduct an assessment of the energy requirements and comfort of the new building. It will compare the performance with other buildings.

The project will involve data logging and analysis. It will require interaction with Yallumba personnel. It will involve some travel to the South East, but all expenses will be covered by the project and the students will have access to School vehicles.
