EXPERTISE

KCE is a team of 20 co-workers with a wide range of expertise: thermal, electrical, ICT, electronics, construction, agricultural,... and this both from a theoretical and a practical background. This team allows for an integrated approach to energy challenges in buildings. 

The is expertise in the following domains:

• The use of energy systems like CHP, heat pumps, PV, fuel cells and hydrogen,...
  
• Simulation and optimalisation of energy flows in, from and towards buildings
  
• Energy mapping: monitoring of energy (including energy audits and advice), monitoring of actual performances,...
  
• Visualization, targeted control and communication of energy consumers and energy generation (e.g. via ICT applications)
  
• Intelligent selection and optimization of the integration and control of HVAC systems in buildings and greenhouses
• Integration and demonstration of energy systems in 'smart buildings' and 'greenhouses'
• Cost optimal investments
