The Building Energy and Environment Group (BEE Group) is an autonomous department of the International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) involving over 20 researchers (Physics, Engineering, ICT, Environmental Science and Statistics specialists). It was founded in 2001 and has two main offices, one in the GAIA building of the UPC Campus in Terrassa and the other in the EUROTRADING building besides the Cappont Campus of the University of Lleida.

Research lines
Our R&D activities are focused on:
Developing better building energy management by improving precision, providing faster response, setting up adaptive and predictive control and making buildings more responsive to users’ requirements and wishes.
Making energy data more useful to professionals and companies by reducing cost and increasing applicability and reliability through Big Data Analytics, personalized energy services and adaptive visual interfaces and mobile applications.
Making energy data more friendly to building users by selecting the most relevant information, by making control more appropriate and by personalising the experience.
We scout the science world looking for knowledge and inspiration
