Program 1: Integrated Building Systems
The real-time visualisation of peer-to-peer trading in solar energy and shared water systems is being funded by the CRC for Low Carbon Living (CRCLCL) in what will be its seventeenth Living Lab – a mobile, modular facility called Legacy.
Legacy will showcase technologies and techniques gleaned from CRCLCL’s existing Living Labs, plus provide a showroom for the world’s first residential development (35 homes) featuring peer-to-peer trading of renewable energy across the grid and shared alterative water systems, located at the Knutsford East Village site, Freemantle, Western Australia.
The project is abtly called Legacy because it will continue the substantial research the CRCLCL started in their ‘learn by doing’ Labs after the Centre reaches completion in June 2019.

RP3033u1: Utilisation Project: Legacy Living Lab – visualisation of smart data and peer-to-peer trading of local renewable energy and alternative water systems from WGV and beyond
The White Gum Valley (WGV) and other projects in the CRC for Low Carbon Living have created rich data for energy and water systems in exemplar low carbon precincts. The stored and dynamic data have been retained through other projects.The utilisation of the data in a real-life situation through visualisation has been the subject of this project. The visualisation will be through an array of dedicated screens in the Legacy Living Lab, a Circular Economy building, which will be positioned on the East Village (Fremantle) precinct in September 2019.
The project considers the design of the visualisation facility through use cases, which are interviews with selected stakeholders from education, industry and society. In a continuation the data is now being prepared for visualisation which is attractive for the lab as a innovation, learning and meeting space. The output for the utilisation project is a fully functional facility for industry, society and academia in place by October 2019.

New Living Lab to visualise energy and water use in real-time
1 March 2019
The real-time visualisation of peer-to-peer trading in solar energy and water is being funded by the CRC for Low Carbon Living (CRCLCL) in what will be its seventeenth Living Lab – a mobile, modular facility called Legacy.
Legacy will showcase technologies and techniques gleaned from the CRCLCL’s existing Living Labs, plus provide a showroom for the world’s first residential development to feature peer-to-peer trading of both renewable energy across the grid and shared alterative water systems. The 35-home development will be located at the Knutsford East Village site, in Freemantle, Western Australia.
