Conference now organised by  Smart Living Lab
Information and registration for news letter: CISBAT.ORG

The Solar Energy and Building Physics Laboratory founded and organised the International Conference CISBAT every other year from 1991 to 2021, on topics related to Solar Energy and Sustainability in the Built Environment.  Solar Energy Journal, Energy and Buildings, Energy Procedia as well as IOP’s Journal of Physics: Conference Series have edited CISBAT Special Issues, whose references you will find below.

Objectives :

  • show the currently possible applications of solar energy in buildings
  • present the latest results from research and development
  • prepare the ground for knowledge transfer from research into practice
  • encourage contacts between researchers and the building industry

The Conference addresses researchers from academic and industrial backgrounds as well as other professionals active in the domains of renewable energy, sustainability, building and urbanism.
