Putting a Lid on Home Energy Costs

 
Abstract: When I read that researchers at MIT are developing a roof that changes colour depending on temperature, I started wondering what would be the best roofing material to use in Calgary. So I collected a bunch of samples of different roofing materials and tested them to find out!

Comments:   Great job Kellan – very appropriate and timely topic considering society’s demand for energy efficient products and the amount of days of sun we get in Calgary. Great experimental data – very detailed and thorough! Impressed that you identified the limitations of your data. It is very important, but difficult, to be objective with your own scientific research! Your website is well organized and easy to navigate. Your graphs and pictures load quickly are easy to read. Congratulations on a fantastic project!! Mr. H
