Personal profile
Research profile
My main research focuses on the use of building management system data and includes areas such as fault detection and diagnosis, performance monitoring of HVAC systems, energy optimization and building simulation. I have participated in EU Horizon projects such as SATO (focused on analysing and optimizing building and system performance) and HEATWISE (focused on the reuse of waste heat from data centers in buildings). Besides these I also work on other projects, such as HYBRIDENE (focused on the utilization of hybrid ventilation in a nordic climate) and COVOCHA (focused on providing high-resolution datasets containing HVAC, room, and occupancy data).
