University Centre for Energy Efficient Buildings
University Centre for Energy Efficient Buildings CTU in Prague[edit]
University Centre for Energy Efficient Buildings (UCEEB) was founded as an institute of the Czech Technical University (CTU) in Prague under the auspices of four departments – Civil engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering.[1] The aim of the Centre is to promote energy efficient and environmentally friendly buildings that are comfortable for their users.[2]

History[edit]
Since its foundation in 2012, ČVUT UCEEB has participated in or contributes to the implementation of more than 100 projects from national and international providers (eg Technology Agency of the Czech Republic, Czech Science foundation, Operational Programs, Horizon 2020, Interreg Europe).[3][4][5][6] The implemented projects are in the area of basic and applied research and also in the area of capacity development and support of research and development. Most applied research projects are carried out in cooperation with the private sector.[7] [8][9]
The research teams and topics[edit]
- Architecture and the environment - Building envelopes and building physics with advanced material solutions
- Energy systems in buildings - A comprehensive focus on energy savings, optimization of energy sources and use of renewable energy sources
- Quality of indoor environment - Research and development of systems improving the quality and comfort of the indoor environment of energy-efficient buildings
- Materials and structures - Research and development of materials. Analysis of structures at normal temperatures and in a fire
- Control and monitoring of intelligent buildings - Design of Advanced Algorithms for Building Energy Systems Management, Efficient Use of Renewable Sources and Energy Saving. Development of new sensors for monitoring of structures, buildings, processes and environments.[10][11][12][13][14]
The UCEEB building[edit]
The entire UCEEB building is an example of the use of the latest energy efficiency trends and technology. The Centre's main facility was designed as a low-energy building using natural renewable construction materials - mostly wood. The building itself is used for experiments.[15][16]
