Dr. Adam Hardy is a Senior Research Fellow at Leeds Sustainability Institute, School of Built Environment, Engineering and Computing, Leeds Beckett University. His work specializes in building performance evaluation using multi-source data including EPC records, smart-meter data, and fieldwork to quantify heat loss and improve domestic energy efficiency.
- Developed the QUB method for rapid energy assessments
- Applied machine learning to damp and mould detection in UK homes
- Leads lab facilities in Leeds’ Climate Innovation District
His research bridges building science and data analytics, focusing on scalable solutions for sustainable housing. Key publications cover energy validation, smart meter policy analysis, and interdisciplinary astrophysical studies. He manages the £3M DEEP project on solid wall home retrofits and operates test cells for real-building technology validation.
Lab leadership includes maintaining historic buildings for sustainability research. While no scientific awards are explicitly listed, his work aligns with UK clean growth strategies and addresses critical housing health risks like damp-related illnesses.
