Seminar on Energy Efficient Facades and Fenestrations in the Tropics
Event Information
Description
Energy efficient façades and fenestrations reduce the energy consumption of building air-conditioning systems in our tropical climate, and improve occupancy comfort in Singapore’s urbanized living environment.
Find out how energy efficient façades and fenestrations impact energy consumption, thermal comfort, glare probability, and noise transmission in buildings.
Get updated on state-of-the-art energy efficient façade and fenestration technologies developed in Germany, Korea and Singapore at this free public seminar.

Organizer of Seminar on Energy Efficient Facades and Fenestrations in the Tropics
The Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS) at the National University of Singapore (NUS) is Singapore’s national institute for applied solar energy research. It commenced operations in 2008.
SERIS is supported by the National University of Singapore (NUS), the National Research Foundation (NRF) and the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB). It has the stature of an NUS University-level Research Institute and is endowed with considerable autonomy and flexibility, including an industry friendly IP policy.
SERIS conducts research, development, testing and consulting on solar energy technologies and their integration into power systems and buildings. The Institute’s R&D spectrum covers materials, components, processes, systems and services, with an emphasis on solar photovoltaic cells, modules and systems. SERIS is globally active but focuses on technologies and services for tropical regions, in particular for Singapore and South-East Asia.
SERIS’ multi-disciplinary research team includes more than 150 scientists, engineers, technicians and PhD students. In addition, the institute has formal research links with more than 20 professors from NUS (“Adjunct researchers”).
SERIS collaborates closely with universities, research organisations, government agencies and industry, both locally and globally. The collaborations with companies from the global solar sector span from small start-ups to industry leading heavyweights.
R&D clusters:
- Novel PV Concepts
- Silicon Materials and Cells
- PV Modules
- Solar Energy Systems
