Research project NoBiCC aim to provide recommendations and guidelines for sustainable climate change adaptation for existing and future buildings located in different climatical zones in the arctic and subarctic areas.
The aim of NoBiCC project is to analyze the impact from a more frequent fluctuating outdoor climate on energy demand, material robustness and hygrothermal performance of buildings in the NPA region. The project takes a multidisciplinary and participatory approach to address the challenges and opportunities of building design in northern climates. The project will develop guidelines and recommendations for sustainable and circular building design, prioritizing collaboration and community engagement.
