maybe more of a reference for your class than a mandatory textbook, but
excellent for setting the appropriate context for renewable energy systems if
they are to satisfy the majority (if not all) of building
needs.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

[BLDG-SIM] Got textbook on energy-efficient building design and
modeling?<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=073185617-27022007>Here's a question
I'm hoping you all might be able to help me with. I have the opportunity to
teach a class spring quarter on energy modeling and energy-efficient building
design at our local technical college. Students are juniors
and seniors earning their degrees in renewable energy
engineering. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=073185617-27022007>Although I have
plenty of reports and websites I can use for references and resources, but I'd
be interested in any recommendations you might have for a suitable *textbook* on
this subject. If you could go even one better and suggest where/from
whom I might get a desk copy for review, I'd be much
obliged.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
