Results of the Summer Comfort Survey

During the summer and winter of 2023/2024, we asked residents how they stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Through photography, writing, drawings, and conversations, residents shared their experiences and knowledge about staying cool and warm in their homes. We spoke with families and single people, older adults and young people, people born in the Netherlands and people born elsewhere. Most of the people we spoke with were renters. 

Diverse profiles and solutions for home renovations

On Tuesday, March 3, Iris Loche, a postdoc at Just Prepare at Eindhoven University of Technology, presented the results of her research on energy sufficiency in residential renovations to a multidisciplinary audience of researchers. The researchers gathered to discuss the theme “Energy Transition in the Built Environment,” which is coordinated by Roel Loonen and Lenneke Kuijer as part of the Eindhoven Institute for Renewable Energy Systems (EIRES).
