Energy in Buildings Department

The Energy in Buildings Department of the National Renewable Energy Centre researches new building methods that reduce the energy and environmental problems in our cities to a minimum, for which it proposes specific design solutions that adapt to the climate where they are located, saving energy and providing users with greater comfort levels.

Collaborating with architects, engineers and developers, it offers them advice on:

• Energy saving and efficiency strategies in buildings
• Bioclimatic construction solutions and systems
• Energy efficient materials.
• Integration of renewable systems in buildings.
• Optimisation of equipment and systems for climate control and natural lighting
