- W2783120401 abstract "The ‘nexus’ between water, food and energy systems is well established. It is conventionally analysed asa supply-side problem of infrastructure interdependencies, overlooking demand-side interactions andopportunities. The home is one of the most significant sites of nexus interactions and opportunities forredesigning technologies and infrastructure. New developments in ‘smart city’ technologies have thepotential to support a bottom-up approach to designing and managing nexus infrastructure. TheEngineering Comes Home was a research project that turned infrastructure design on its head. Theobjectives of the project were to: Demonstrate a new paradigm for engineering design starting from the viewpoint of the home,looking out towards systems of provision to meet household demands. Integrate thinking about water, energy, food, waste and data at the domestic scale to support userledinnovation and co-design of technologies and infrastructure. Test new design methods that connect homes to communities, technologies and infrastructure,enhancing positive interactions between data, water, energy, food and waste systems. Develop a robust Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) Calculator tool to support environmental decisionmakingin co-design.Working with residents of the Meakin Estate in South London, the project followed a co-design methodto identify requirements, analyse options and develop and test a detailed design for a preferred option.The outputs were:1) Ethnographic study of how residents use water, energy and food resources in their homes and keyopportunities for engineering design to improve wellbeing and reduce resource consumption.2) Co-design of decentralised infrastructural systems in three workshops in 2016-2017. The firstworkshop identified key priorities for development from the community using a novel token-basedsystem design method, to enable participants to build up alternative designs for local provision of water,energy, food and waste services. The second workshop provided participants with factsheets andphotographs of the candidate technologies, which were then analysed using a LCA Calculator tool. 47Rainwater harvesting was selected as the technology for further co-design in the third workshop, whichfocussed on scaling up a pilot installation.3) Pilot-scale smart rainwater system was installed in partnership with the Over The Air Analytics (OTA).OTA’s system enables remote control of the rainwater storage tanks to optimise their performance asstormwater attenuation as well as non-potable water supply.4) Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) Calculator to enable quick estimation of the impacts of new systems andtechnology to deliver water, energy and food, and manage waste at the household and neighbourhoodscale.5) Stakeholders, including utilities, design consultancies and community based organisations, wereengaged in three workshops to inform the wider relevance and development of the co-design methodsand tools.6) Toolbox and method statements to standardise and disseminate the methods used in the project forwider application and development." @default.
