Biography

Ph.D. (1998) Building Physics, M.Sc. (1990) Environmental Physics and B.Sc. (1987) Physicist from the Department of Physics, University of Athens. Active in the areas of building physics – thermal performance of buildings and energy conservation, rational use of energy in buildings, building typologies, EPBD transposition and the national regulation (KENAK), building thermal simulations, assessment of ventilation systems for building applications, CFD, energy audits, indoor air quality, renewable energy sources for building applications. Participation as leading researcher in various European and National Research Programmes. Member of the Board of Directors of the Centre for Renewable Energy Sources – CRES (2010-2013). National representative in the Annex 35 technical committee of the International Energy Agency working on Hybrid Ventilation
