Niki Gaitani
About
Dr Niki Gaitani is Associate Professor in Integrated Energy Design at the Dept. of Architecture and Technology at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, NTNU. She has more than fifteen years of experience in energy efficiency and sustainable design strategies from building to neighbourhood and city scale.
Her research activities and expertise relate to the energy performance of buildings, the integrated energy design, the zero emission - plus energy concepts, the building and urban physics, and climate-resilience of the built environment. She has authored more than a 100 publications of which 35 articles in peer-reviewed scientific journals with high impact factors.
She is the Project Leader of syn.ikia H2020 project (IA) - Sustainable Plus Energy Neighbourhoods and the Vice Coordinator of the ARV project (Green Deal) on Climate Positive Circular Communities. She is also responsible for the International Strategy of FME ZEN - Research Centre of Zero Emission Neighbourhoods . Niki Gaitani teaches within the International MSc Program of Sustainable Architecture at NTNU.
She has had an active role in more than twenty EU funded research projects (RIA, IA, CSA, and MSCA ITN) and served as a Leader of Subtask D in the International Energy Agency IEA Energy in buildings and Community EBC -Annex 83-Positive Energy Districts PEDs.
Niki Gaitani is appointed member of the National Reference Group for Climate, Energy and Mobility in Horizon Europe, Research Council of Norway.
