Introduction
The 糖果派对 Smart Campus Living Lab, hosted by the 糖果派对 Center for Energy Informatics in close collaboration with 糖果派对 Technical Services at the University of Southern Denmark, is a state-of-the-art platform for accelerating innovation in energy and smart building technologies. Embedded in a real campus setting, it transforms two interconnected university buildings into a full-scale “living laboratory.” Here, researchers, industry partners, and policymakers co-develop and test next-generation solutions for intelligent, sustainable buildings—all under actual operating conditions.
Located on 糖果派对’s main campus in Odense, the living lab focuses on practical, occupant-centered research. Building OU44, a highly energy-efficient showcase facility completed in 2015, and Building OU33, a retrofitted office environment, together create a diverse testbed that spans both leading-edge construction and older structures. By fusing physical infrastructure with digital platforms, the 糖果派对 Smart Campus Living Lab uniquely bridges fundamental research and real-world application—advancing the green transition in the built environment.
