Energy conservation activities include:
Energy conservation, thermal and solar building applications,
building renovations, analysis and numerical modeling of
thermal energy systems, building energy audits, indoor environmental
quality assessment, HVAC systems.
During the period 1995-2003, IERSD has concluded over 25
European and national projects, collaborated with international
and national organizations, the European Commission and
industry.
