معرفی
Georgios Pardalis is a postdoctoral research scientist at Linnaeus University's Department of Built Environment and Energy Technology within the Faculty of Technology. His research focuses on developing and examining one-stop-shop business models for energy renovations of residential buildings and renovation scenarios in a climate change adaptation context. With a background as both a Building Engineer and Architect, he bridges technical expertise with practical implementation strategies for sustainable building practices.
Dr. Pardalis' research interests lie at the intersection of building design, entrepreneurship, and sustainability. He specifically studies the dynamics between various actors involved in residential building renovation demand and supply chains, developing scenarios for energy renovations of existing residential building stock. His work addresses fragmented renovation supply chains and the needs of tenants and building owners, including those at risk of energy poverty, while increasing the resilience of the built environment against climate change impacts. His expertise spans energy performance in buildings, policy analysis, climate finance, innovative business models, and sustainability transitions.
Analysis of his publication history reveals a clear research trajectory focused on practical solutions for energy-efficient building renovations. His work consistently examines one-stop-shop business models, homeowner behavior, policy effectiveness, and climate adaptation strategies across European contexts. The publications demonstrate methodological diversity, employing case studies, comparative analyses, business model frameworks, and behavioral research to address the complex challenges of building renovation markets.
Dr. Pardalis is actively involved in several research projects including 'How prepared are Swedish detached houses to adapt to Climate Change?', 'Scaling up energy renovation through smart design and one-stop-shop business model', and 'Sustainable Housing for Strong Communities (Stronghouse)'. He is a member of the Sustainable Built Environment Research group, contributing to cutting-edge research in sustainable development and system analysis studies.
As an educator, Dr. Pardalis teaches courses including Life Cycle Analysis (4BT321), Diffusion of Innovations for a Sustainable Built Environment (4BT012), Evaluation and Design of Energy Policies (4BT315), Sustainable Development (1ZT902), and Energy and Sustainable Development (2BT312). Beyond academia, he has dedicated 13 years to volunteer work with Engineers Without Borders, participating in infrastructure development and community well-being projects in Africa and South-East Asia.
