Energy Audits and Energy Efficiency Improvement Applications in Buildings

 
 
In the context of the INFACOMA-AGUATHERM ATHENS 2017 International Exposition that will take place in Athens, at the HELEXPO Exposition Centre in Marousi from the 2th to the5th of March 2017, HAMME (HELLENIC ASSOCIATION OF MECHANICAL & ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS) hosts a workshop with main topic:
 
“Energy Audits and Energy Efficiency Improvement Applications in Buildings”
 
The workshop will take place on Saturday, 04/03/2017, from 11:00 am to 15:00 pm
 
Aim
 
Upon the revision of the Greek Regulation for Building Energy Efficiency with the application of the new law 4342/2015 for energy audits, HAMME hosts a workshop with main topic the new opportunities and possibilities that emerge in the field of energy-saving and renovation of buildings in Greece in the optimal techno - economic way that also offers high reciprocation. Also, the aim of the workshop is to inform our colleague engineers on the new demands and specifications of the Building Energy Efficiency Regulation and the Energy Audits Guide.
