Energy Efficient Buildings
In times of global warming and limited resources of fossil fuels, particular pressure is placed on issues related to environmental protection and energy saving. Particular importance here has the idea of so called energy efficient buildings, namely, such office and domestic spaces that new (or renovated) buildings were more friendly to the environment, energy saving or even self-sustained.
The most popular technologies and matters which find application here, include: wind energy, solar panels and collectors, long-term energy storage, advanced insulation materials or energy spending management. Each year new innovative solutions are tested and implemented – totally new or combining those already existing in a new, unconventional way.
It is the multitude of important issues and thus, the need for a multidisciplinary approach to problem solving that makes us particularly interested in energy efficient construction.
Many of the works and projects we undertake is directly or indirectly related to the issue of energy efficient buildings. It includes analyses of energy efficiency, calculations of thermal processes, designing construction elements of buildings and installations,, monitoring of parameters influencing the amount of energy consumed and optimal control of subsystems in the buildings.
