Unit of Energy Efficient Building
The Unit of Energy Efficient Building at the University of Innsbruck sees its task as supporting the sustainable renewal process, on the one hand by training competent engineers and architects, and on the other hand through consistent research and development for the benefit of people's health, sustainable development and the protection of the environment. Our focus is on the various sub-areas and components that need to be improved or optimised, but we also look at the complex interplay within the overall system in order to find optimal overall solutions within the scope of the many possibilities.
The Unit of Energy Efficient Building is closely linked to the Research Center Sustainable Building.
