Overview
Responsibilities
Miltiadis Ionas is a Research Assistance. His role in the project is to assist with research including planning, preparing, setting up, conducting and recording the outcome of experiments/field work/desktop research/questionnaires. Also, his duties involve collecting, preparing and analysing monitoring data obtained from existing and future demonstration buildings/communities where low carbon systems have been installed. In addition, he is working with the LCBE team to develop a set of monitoring protocols that will be transferable to other built environment projects across Wales and further afield which is essential to provide evidence to support future implementation of low carbon technologies.
