Module 7 - Building Systems for Renewable Energy Production

This module focuses on innovative techniques for the application and integration of renewable energy technologies in buildings and urban contexts. It explores the practical use of systems such as heat pumps, solar thermal applications, photovoltaics, and geothermal energy, emphasizing their role in sustainable building design and energy-positive environments:

• Integration of renewable energy systems in buildings
  
• Heat pumps, solar thermal systems, photovoltaics, and geothermal energy
  
• Design strategies for on-site and decentralized energy production
  
• Synergies between building systems, architecture, and urban energy concepts
  
• Field excursion on geothermal applications in existing buildings
  

The module aligns with SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and SDG 13 (Climate Action).
