Silvia Erba
About
Silvia Erba holds a M.Sc. degree and a PhD in Building Engineering with honours from Politecnico di Milano, Italy. Since 2012 she has been conducting research and teaching activities in the field of thermodynamics, building physics and building diagnostics. Her research mainly deals with low and zero energy buildings, performance simulation and thermal comfort under future weather scenarios, energy flexibility, smart cities and positive energy districts. She has been involved in several European projects dealing with smart buildings and smart cities, deep energy renovation, nearly Zero Energy Buildings, post-occupancy evaluations, energy and IEQ monitoring.
