- •
We analyse the performance of internal and external blinds for an office building.
- •
Life cycle energy demand of external directionally selective blinds is determined.
- •
We include the effect of shading on HVAC sizing and life cycle energy demand.
- •
Embodied energy accounts for up to 25% of energy demand over 25 years.
- •
External venetian blinds reduce life cycle energy demand by up to 25% over 25 years.
