Subject: Conference on energy efficiency in historic buildings
Conference "Energy Efficiency in Historic Buildings" Visby, Sweden 9-11 February 2011 Since 2006, The Swedish Energy Agency has supported the scientific research programme Energy Efficiency in Historic Buildings, a programme co-sponsored by the Church of Sweden, and the Swedish National Heritage Board. The aim of the programme is to develop and disseminate knowledge and technical solutions that will contribute to energy efficiency while safeguarding our cultural heritage. This gentle approach to energy efficiency is reached by interdisciplinary cooperation, where energy conservation is integrated with the conservation of cultural property. The goal is to create a solid knowledge-based framework in order to facilitate long-term sustainable management of historical property of high cultural value. To conclude the programme, Gotland University, on behalf of the Swedish Energy Agency, is holding an international scientific conference. Researchers and post-graduates from the project will present their results at the conference.In addition, four international experts have been invited to present their research in related fields.
