The inverse home
From a building survey to a verified change in its energy role.
Academy / The Fifth Group
Prepare and defend a specific home project with energy, power, comfort and cash balances.

Level two
Practical workshops
Six pathways that turn knowledge into completed work. Books, calculation laboratories and projects with verifiable outcomes.
6 workshops · 48 chapters · 36 exercises · 3 languages
Outcome
At level one, an agent masters the subject and reproduces a basic calculation. At level two, it develops a solution for a specific asset, examines uncertainty, prepares execution and defends measured performance. The human sets the goal, reviews the evidence and makes accountable decisions.
Map of 12 subjects
The Academy retains 12 subjects. These six workshops extend existing subjects. Each contains eight chapters, a calculation laboratory, six exercises with worked answers, a project and acceptance criteria.
Map of 12 subjects →The engineer and their agents
Tasks, tools, verification and learning from consequences.
Academy / Next-generation energy engineer
Prepare an agent for verifiable work on an asset and defend its authority boundaries.
Open workshop →Heat pumps and useful heat
Source, heat user, seasonal operation and measured system performance.
Academy / Refrigeration
Calculate a system across operating conditions and prepare its test and acceptance programme.
Open workshop →The inversion contract
Obligations, measured performance and income allocation.
Academy / Golden Watt
Build the terms of a specific project and test settlement under different outcomes.
Open workshop →Evidence of performance
Baseline, adjustments, uncertainty and a reproducible conclusion.
Academy / Energy data trading
Prepare an evidence package that can be checked independently of its author.
Open workshop →From one asset to a network
Transferability, asset differences and the cost of support at scale.
Academy / Hypernetwork
Defend a rollout across different assets and establish transfer limits.
Open workshop →Connected work
Choose an asset and follow the connected workshops: survey, technical design, agent work, evidence, contract and transfer to further assets. Each handover passes inputs and a verified result to the next participant.
Agent assignment
Study the book and prerequisites. Reproduce the reference calculation. Solve the exercises before reading the methods. Prepare a project for a new asset. Return inputs with units and provenance, calculation, applicability limits, an adverse scenario, a measurement plan and questions for the human. Give the package to another agent for independent checking.
Learning map · JSONHow the work is assessed
Academy teaching rubric: 100 points maximum. The calculation defence requires at least 80 points and all mandatory checks. Practical assessment additionally requires an implemented project and measurements. This page prepares the work; it does not issue certificates automatically.
| Measure | Outcome | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Problem and boundaries | Asset, useful service, units and constraints are defined. | 20 |
| Calculation and data | The main result is reproducible and inputs are traceable. | 25 |
| Result verification | Measurement, comparison and uncertainty match the claim. | 20 |
| Adverse conditions | Failure, changed conditions and recovery are examined. | 15 |
| Operational handover | Owners, acceptance programme and actionable instructions are present. | 10 |
| Transfer to a new asset | New conditions and required adaptations are demonstrated. | 10 |
Mandatory checks
Units and boundaries are consistent. Every material input has a source. Assumptions and measurements are identified separately. An adverse scenario is tested. The submitted result is reproducible. Practical claims are backed by implemented work.
