19/09/06 -- A new way of ventilating schools, offices and homes that also cuts down dramatically on energy use has been developed by scientists at the University of Cambridge BP Institute. The 'E-stack' offers a green solution for effective ventilation throughout the year.

E-Stack is an invention that arose during research into ways of naturally ventilating buildings, and was inspired by novel laboratory experiments, together with data collected from buildings. This research, led by Prof Andy Woods at the University of Cambridge BP Institute formed part of a Cambridge-MIT project funded by BP.
