Project description
 

The zero-energy test building aims to support ongoing research into the development and application of innovative construction and installation concepts for application in NZEB (Nearly Zero energy Buildings) and the interaction of this type of buildings with smart electric grids. The international research community emphasizes the importance of large-scale testing in realistic, dynamic conditions for fundamental insight into the performance of this kind of applications.
