Clear-up will Develop Sustainable Approaches to Management of the Indoor Environment, Optimised in Terms of Energy and Usability
The clear-up Approach:
clear-up will use sensors and intelligent control to provide an energy-optimized indoor
environment, where active and passive systems for
- lighting,
- ventilation and
- temperature
are combined in one building. Day lighting and natural ventilation will work in conjunction with artificial systems.
The clear-up Key Facts:
- Integration of a range of nano and micro technology-enabled components in a holistic system
- Development of new building control strategies integrating active and passive elements
- Simulation and modeling will be used along with economic and ecological analysis to address the business and resource aspects in a whole lifecycle approach
- The comfort and motivation of the user will affect their behaviour, and is critical to successful implementation
Budget: € 12 million
Funding: € 8.3 million
Duration: November 2008 – October 2012
