The NTNU Department of Architecture and Technology has a vacancy for a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Modelling and Verification of Sustainable Plus Energy Neighbourhoods.

About the job

The postdoctoral fellowship position is a temporary position where the main goal is to qualify for work in senior academic positions.

NTNU has a vacancy for a two-year Post Doc as part of the H2020 project syn.ikia and H2020 ARV Green Deal.

The Postdoctoral fellowship will pursue the following objectives:

• Verify the performance of plus energy buildings and neighbourhoods in different contexts and climates
• Develop digital methods and tools, including visualization platforms, integrated as Digital Twins at the neighbourhood level
• Assess the flexibility potential based on buildings’ components and climate data
• Optimize the use of the produced energy from renewable energy sources and quantify the potential
