Lars Ekberg

Adjunct Professor at Building Services Engineering

Lars Ekberg is an adjunct professor in indoor climate technology at the division of building services engineering. He also works as a consultant at one of the subsidiaries of Chalmers Industriteknik, CIT Energy Management AB.
Lars' research is focused on the chain of issues from human needs and wishes, via formulation of requirements to the design, construction and management of healthy, comfortable and energy-efficient buildings.
Lars work over a wide spectrum, with residential buildings on one end, and advanced laboratories with very stringent requirements on the other.
