For several years, our university research group is interested in innovative materials in the field of energy saving, with particular attention in transparent building components, regarding, specifically, the use of electrochromic glass (EC). The high sunshine that characterizes the climate of the Mediterranean regions makes this technology particularly interesting in relation to indoor comfort, energy saving and consequently the environmental respect. Currently no specific studies, full scale, have been set for testing and evaluation of the EC in this very challenging. Our research group built, for this purpose, two identical test rooms. In the first room we implemented low-emission glass and in the second one EC glass. Indoor and external comparative measurements have performed and recorded. In this paper we present in detail the results of this experiment and the conclusions for the tested January period.
