Evangelos Kyrou

Evangelos is a post-doctoral researcher in the Unit Building Physics and Services at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). His work focuses on making the existing housing stock more sustainable, as being one of the major challenges in the context of the climate objectives. Specifically, he is involved in the research and development of the national calculation model for the renovation of the existing residential building stock, based on which, independent and thorough sustainability advice is expected to be obtained. This action will be important to offer perspective to corporations and private home owners.
