University Centre for Energy Efficient Buildings joined the IQRF Alliance
16 February 2017
UCEEB was founded as an independent institute of the Czech Technical University in Prague under the auspices of four departments – Civil engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering. The Centre's goal is to leverage synergy effects of research activities of the individual departments which are related to energy efficient buildings.
UCEEB is aiming to an optimisation of modern buildings to increase its energy efficiency to meet the demands of the European Union and to improve overall satisfaction from using those buildings. The membership of the UCEEB institute can bring opportunities for the IQRF Alliance members to participate on European scientific projects, where they can use their solutions and products built on the IQRF wireless technology.
"Buildings represent one of the areas with the largest potential for energy saving and reduction of the impact of human activities on the environment. To use this potential to its maximum, we need to adopt an integrated approach to all phases of a building's life cycle, both for existing and new buildings," said professor Zdeněk Bittnar, Centre's founder.
