Zero Carbon Architecture&Future City

OUR GOAL :Toward A Better Life

Welcome to the Research Group of Zero Carbon ArchitectureFuture City, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology!

Our group is committed to exploring the frontiers of sustainable design and construction practices. We work in close collaboration with esteemed industry partners to spearhead the advancement of Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) automated manufacturing, construction, and installation areas. 

Our approach involves the integration of cutting-edge technologies, such as Prefabrication, Modular Integrated Construction, Automated Construction, Building Information Modeling (BIM), Digital Twins, Smart Manufacturing of photovoltaic modules and components, large-scale thin film photovoltaic manufacturing, smart windows (electrochromic glass), and structural color coating. Our ultimate objective is to develop innovative solutions for sustainable and energy-efficient buildings that are at the forefront of modern architecture.
