Abstract :
The University of Virginia´s ecoMOD project, which promotes ecological, affordable housing, is currently in its evaluation phase. This involves monitoring energy and water consumption in the first of the project´s homes with a student-designed and installed system. The data collected from this system will be used to inform the design of the next home and educate occupants about resource preservation
