Some of the topics that will be discussed through our two day programme are: Delivering net zero â from construction techniques through to operational use Designing for Embodied carbon â from material specification through to repair and maintenance Managing and measuring whole Life-cycle carbon costs What clients want? Costs, impacts and understand plannerâs agenda The...
The full day event will facilitate dialogues on radical collaboration and on driving ambition by each actor along the value chain to enable each other to race to zero together. It will feature strategic approaches and tools which can drive sector transformation including the regional roadmaps. Discuss with the CEOs of Saint-Gobain and Majid al...
27 Nov @ 4PM IST. Air-conditioned buildings are conventionally designed and operated to maintain homogeneous thermal conditions withing thermal zones. Maintaining the occupied and unoccupied thermal zones at the same thermal conditions lead to higher energy consumption. More importantly,
ACEEE research has found that energy efficiency can halve U.S. energy use and greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. With growing interest in policies to address global climate change, as well as a new Congress and a new presidential term to begin in January 2021, ACEEE will be hosting the Energy Efficiency and Climate Policy Forum...
The Behavior, Energy & Climate Change Conference (BECC) is the premier international conference focused on understanding human behavior and decision making and using that knowledge to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future. Currently, in its 14th year, BECC is associated with a growing set of allied conferences in Europe and Asia. The BECC Conference...

The 12th GRIHA Summit scheduled from December 15-16, 2020 has been themed around "Rejuvenating Resilient Habitats" and shall serve as a platform to deliberate on innovative technologies and solutions which shall help in creating robust mechanisms for developing sustainable and resilient solutions for the...
15 Dec @ 6PM IST. Bayalpata Hospital in Achham, Nepal is a culturally-appropriate design that leverages local climate and on-site materials to minimize carbon in the construction process and building operation. Built from low-tech construction methodsâprimarily reinforcedâŠ
The fifth edition of Urban ARC, the Annual Research Conference of the Indian Institute for Human Settlements, will be conducted between the 14 â 16 January 2021. The theme for this edition is âUrban Imaginaries: Past, Present and Futureâ. The idea of imaginaries holds a pivotal place in inquiry. Central to the very nature of...
The Sustainable Design Lab at MIT has developed an new web app called UBEM.io to streamline the creation and analysis of urban building energy models (UBEMs). The resulting urban models can be directly used within MITâs Urban Modeling Interface (UMI) to calculate operational building energy use along with savings from various retrofitting upgrades for hundreds or thousands of new or existing buildings. During this free, three day...
Digitalisation has fast permeated into the energy utilities too. Power plants, grid operators and electricity suppliers are adopting tools of the digital age to generate greater efficiencies across their operational business units, significantly improve customer experience, and accelerate innovation to stay ahead in rapidly changing markets. The Covid-19 pandemic has further hastened this trend as...
